NOW CLOSED

With a school half term in our midst, you may be thinking about the ways you can keep your children occupied and active. Arla BIG Milk would like to hear about the Big Adventures you have planned or have been on this October half term.

Here’s what Arla Big Milk has to say: “We know how important it is to get your little explorers out in the world around them, so we’ve partnered with Magic Light to bring you yearlong BIG Adventures. From Gruffalo nature trail walks to BIG Adventures craft videos, there’s lots for you and your little one to get involved in. We’re also running an on pack monthly prize draw, available across UK grocery retailers, to give you the chance to win an amazing trip to Chessington World of Adventures. Arla Big Milk is simply fresh whole milk that’s enriched with essential nutrients so if you want to join in on the adventure, come visit our site to explore activities for your half term.”

What days out do you have planned for the half term? Do you have a trip to a theme or adventure park pencilled in? Perhaps you have plans to explore the great outdoors with your children? If you’ve already been on adventures this half term, what did you get up to?

Whatever your half term plans, post them below to be entered into a prize draw where one MNer will win a £300 voucher for the store of their choice (from a list).

Thanks and good luck!

I'm taking the kids to Haven Blackpool to see the lights!!

We are visiting family so there will be days out, family get togethers with board games, films, arts and crafts etc

I've made a game ready to play at half term. I went to our large local park which has animals, lakes, playgrounds etc and I've taken photos of certain animals/objects etc and printed them out on my printer and then laminated copies for each child and fastened together to make like a little booklet. We are going to take a picnic and go to the park during half term and the kids will have to find what's on their laminated pictures. Have played this before at a different location and they love it - takes a bit of preparation but it's well worth it!

I’m working so trying to fit in nice stuff where I can. We’re having a girly shopping day, a picnic with the bunnies, swimming, maybe a Halloween themed thing although DD isn’t that fussed, a friend over for lunch & maybe a bike ride if this lovely weather lasts. I don’t plan too much as she needs to chill 🙂

All our plans any time we get the chance involve getting outdoors and using up some energy. Everything is so beautiful right now with the autumn leaves and the weather is being very kind!
