    This is a cool list I'm totally needing some summertime inspiration as I have my three kids to keep entertained over the holidays. I love back garden camping, I have such special memories of doing this with my daughter.

    Great list!
    We will be in Greece for half of the holidays, we have an apartment there and live like the locals. Advantages and disadvantages with that, I am bringing loads of activity books along for Emma for the middle of the day, when it is too hot to be outdoors.xx

    Unfortunately there are only limited things we can do in the town we live in. But luckily this will change because we are moving to a more commute area in 2 months time. I can't wait. There are so many things to do for the kids I don't even know where to start.
