The summer holidays are upon us and parents all over the region fear those
three little words – “Mum, I’m Bored!” Fear not! Generation One lists all the
brilliant places you can take your children
locally and, if you visit our
forums page,
you can see real recommendations from real Mums for fantastic credit crunch
beating ideas – many of which are free. Please add your own ideas so that other
families can keep their little ones from driving them crazy.
Do you remember birthday parties from our own childhood? Long nylon party
dresses, jelly and cheese and pineapple on stick hedgehogs? A quick game of pass
the parcel and hide and seek and it was time to go home. I don’t remember anyone
worrying about party bags, and there was rarely entertainment, save someone’s
Dad doing the odd magic trick. How different things are now. Our Birthday
Party Survival Guide will help you to navigate your way through this
potentially difficult time, with some brilliant suggestions to keep you sane.
