Ideas Please..12 year olds and the next three weeks

[Beetroot]

my older kids 11 and 12

Just back froma month away

'can I go in to town' that is it. 'Can we go to Bath', '

IIdes for fun stuff to do while is is cool (well nto hot anyway)

was goign to take them to the beach, little hotel in Salcombe for a couple days but it is cold..

So.........hit me with some good ideas

so no one else know what to do with their pre teens either???

oh i'm with you on this one beetroot. mine have just returned from 2 weeks away without us and I am dreading next 3 weeks it will be flipping awful, dd2 12 will constantly want to go to local shops with friends and she is a spendaholic, dd1 14 will be happy to sit and mope around.

so what do we do?

mmmm not much help me sorry. Been to chester school uniform shopping today nightmare with two toddlers in toe as well.

Tomorrow going to knowsley safari park after that not quite sure.

My Ds went on a Snowboard camp at the local dry sloap. 3hrs per day for 5 days at £42 they don't stay over, so not really a camp as such. I thought is was good value, there are tennis, football and other "camps" on the go too.

Are there any activities locally - there have been a few things at local leisure centres here - e.g. rock climbing wall, beauty and massage courses, loads of sports like football, cricket etc. Sorry if not much use - my kids are littler but I did see these things advertised.

actually I could take they to the dry ski slopes...good idea...that for prompting me
