Common questions
What can I do with kids in the school holidays?
Loads, without spending a fortune. This generator builds a day or a week of activities from crafts and science to outdoor games and quiet time, all matched to your children's ages and using things most families have at home.
Does it work for different-aged children?
Yes. Add each child's age and we pick activities that suit the youngest, with a note on how older siblings can take the lead or try a trickier version.
Are the activities expensive?
No. Everything is low-cost or free, built around everyday materials. You can also choose 'at home' to keep things simple, or 'out and about' for fresh air.
Can I save the plan?
You can print any plan for the fridge, and if you sign in for free you can save it to your account and come back to it any time.
