Outside of the summer holidays it can be difficult to find

quality entertainment for the children when they are off school.

When it is cold and wet sticking them out in the garden isn't

really an option, which means they are charging around the house

causing mayhem. During the summer months there is a host of

opportunities available to parents but as the weather closes in

these choices become more limited.



However, just before you find the boarding school application

forms there are still some activities out there that will

certainly capture your children's attention - without breaking

the bank.



Legoland Windsor Viking Firework Spectacular



This ever-popular event is a firm family favourite and this year

should prove to be extra special as Legoland celebrates the end

of its tenth season. The firework show really is spectacular

with guests able to cheer on heroic Vikings as they journey on

land and sea, through myth and legend, battling dragons and

monsters. The show culminates in a gripping battle of good

versus evil in this amazing pyrotechnic display.



The show is a wonderful finally to a great day out for the

family who can enjoy five new attractions and three brand new

rides in the Windsor park. For those not with in easy reach of

the park, there is some excellent ticket plus accommodation

packages available with short break specialists

A Theatre Trip to see Scrooge!



With Christmas approaching there is no better way to get into

the festive mood than treating the kids to tickets for the

wonderful Scrooge which is showing at the London Palladium from

November 8th. Based on Dickens' festive tale, A Christmas Carol,

the show stars West End veteran Tommy Steele as Ebenezer

Scrooge.



Children will be enchanted by the specially created illusions by

magician Paul Kieve who developed the magic effects in the Harry

Potter films, while the whole family will enjoy the fantastic

musical score. Scrooge! really is the perfect way to get you in

that Christmas mood and is guaranteed fun for the children.

Two for one at Alton Towers!



Alton Towers is a fantastic venue for a weekend break for all

the family...and for the last days of the season you can pay for

one day and get the second one free. Alton Towers is the UK's

greatest theme park, home to legendary thrills like Oblivion,

Nemesis and Air - and now, new this year, Rita - Queen of Speed.

Rita is faster than a shuttle take-off, speedier than a Ferrari,

boasts more lift than an airplane, and is more explosive even

than Nemesis and Oblivion. This great deal enables a family of

four into the park for two days at a price of only £98.



Overall, if you put in a little research there is plenty of

great activities out there to keep the kids occupied in the run

up to Christmas. With a bit of luck you will find enough to keep

you sane - and the kids out of boarding school!
