What to do in the School Holidays
For some families, school holidays are a time when the family can spend some time together whilst for others school age children need to go somewhere safe while their parents/carers work.
There are a number of on-line search tools to help you find something to do in the school holidays:
- The What’s On directory has wide range of activities for the whole family.
- The Family Services Directory has events and activities in your local area
In addition, the Family Information Service has produced a “Boredom Busters” guide which is packed with ideas for things to do with children at little or no cost.
Every summer holiday the Family Information Service also produce a “What’s On Guide”, which is a comprehensive guide to activities and events for children and teenagers throughout Lincolnshire, over the summer holidays.
They also have information on other events and activities, including Short Breaks activities for children with disabilities.
The Family Information Services maintain the Ofsted database of registered childcare within Lincolnshire, including childminders, day nurseries, out of school and holiday clubs, so if you need childcare or a kid’s club for your children in the school holidays, give them a call and they can find you details of care in your area.
