Holiday Activities for the kids: share with Lidl your top tips - vouchers to be won NOW CLOSED

[AnnMumsnet]

The team at Lidl know how hard it can be to entertain your children during the school holidays, whether that’s the cold February half term, the longer Easter hols or the never ending Summer break. So we’re keen to hear all the activities you do with your children to stop them from uttering those dreaded words… ‘I’m bored…’

So, what’s your saving grace? Do you try and get them outside for for a kickabout in the park or a game of rounders with friends? Or - if the weather’s not playing ball - do you have some ideas for keeping kids occupied when they’re stuck indoors. Maybe you have some Easter-related food you make together, or arts and crafts tricks? And above all that, how do you stick to a budget and keep costs down?

Add your top tips and plans of action to this thread and you’ll be entered into a prize draw where 5 winners will each get £50 to spend in Lidl.

Thanks

Hello! We usually try to spend more time outside. Play with snow or make a snowman, we like to go to different places. If you can not spend much time outside, find some activities at home. You can take up some baking, drawing or singing. My children love to draw, we always come up with contests. I download and print Christmas colorings from colorkid.net/coloring-pages-new-years-day-and-christmas and kids draw them. Then we post them in the house, it creates a real spirit of Christmas and comfort. Furthermore, there is nothing better than a good old tvister, which you can play the whole family.
