This is a weekly Linky to share ideas for family days out. Last week I dropped my kids off for the first day of the new school term and then went skiing – at the Hemel Hempstead Snow Centre. I’d been invited there for the launch of Go Ski Go Board, a national campaign to […]

Amsterdam Arena Tour – share your family days

Dennis Bergkamp picture, Ajax stadium.

As he sits down, my ten year old son looks mighty pleased. He calls me over and whispers: ‘This is the best seat. Can you take a photo of me?’ The chair he’s sitting in is usually occupied by Ajax football team captain and Holland midfielder Siem De Jong. We’re on a tour of Amsterdam […]

Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters – Family Days

August 23, 2013 by Gretta Schifano 8 Comments

We’ve been recuperating after a full-on trip to Florida and have hardly been out this week. On our return the teen had a packed schedule involving sleeping and catching up on a fortnight of Big Brother episodes so she barely emerged from her room for three days. Meanwhile the youngest has developed a passion for […]

Did J K Rowling get the idea for magical places being ‘unplottable’ after a visit to Disney World? I think she may have done. Despite being armed with maps and guidebooks we managed to lose our way nearly every time we drove to Walt Disney World during our recent two-week trip to Orlando. There are […]

Kennedy Space Center rocket launch

This is a weekly Linky to share your posts on family days out with children. This week we were lucky enough to be at the Kennedy Space Center to see a rocket launch. We sat on the grass behind some retired rockets, which felt surreal. There was a laid-back, friendly crowd of us waiting for lift […]
