Three of our favourite ways to get outside, move, explore and keep everyone sane โ without spending a fortune.
All basically FREE. Good for their bodies, good for their mindsโฆ and probably even better for ours.
1.Longsands Beach
Find the stream, grab some buckets & spades and build the biggest dam you can.
Bonus: lunch at Crusoe's Tynemouth afterwards ๐
2.SIMONSIDE HILLS ๐ฅพ Forestry England
A tough little walk โ but absolutely worth it for the views, fresh air and hopefully some very tired children. ๐
Pack snacks. Lots of snacks.
3.BIKE + ROCK POOLS ๐ฒ๐ฆ
Two of our absolute favourites. Get out on the bikes, find some rock pools and hunt for crabs.
Our kids would happily do this for hours.
