Thanks Chanchi.
We were going up to Edinburgh next week to see the pandas but with the pregnancy and uncertainty over whether we'd actually see them we canned it, Milton Keynes to Edinburgh is a long drive without a guarantee :disappointed:
So I have a week off next week to see what we can do as a family without the restrictions the family deals have.
Don't spend any time doing what I could do, it was a flippant comment pointing out the fact there isn't any real family deals unless your kids are under a certain age :smiley:

A lot of these family deals apply to kids under 15 or 16.
We are a family but my daughters are 16 & 21.
Anyone have a good deal for a family as in A FAMILY!

Although I made this thread primarily for families (which include children), with the hope that it would be of some help during the school summer holidays, if you look through the deals I'm sure you'll find some that can also be used for your family 'as in' FOUR ADULTS :smiley:
It's also quite easy to find deals and voucher codes doing a quick Google search, and as you know both the places you'd like to visit and the preferred area, it would probably be better for you to look for yourself :smiley:

You can get 2 for 1 when traveling by train http://m.daysoutguide.co.uk/c/city-cruises.aspx think this can be used during school holidays :smiley: you just need a valid rail ticket - so even if you don't want to travel by train just buy the cheapest rail ticket for the day near to venue and your covered
It's not possible to write in bold in the OP!! Which you'll know if you bother to post a deal :smirk:
I know it can take a tiny bit of effort on your part to read through the text and find the offer you need, then either copy and paste the link or find the clickable link I made in the 1st post. But hey, I'm sure you don't need spoon feeding absolutely everything!

I've had a quick look and there doesn't seem to be much tbh. It does seem to be included in the Tesco boost which gives you £10 for just £2.50 worth of points, but I guess that only helps if you have Tesco Clubcard points.

No problem. I just thought it's a great idea to start the day with almost free entertainment.
Leeds has something called the "Breeze Tour" goes around the whole city on different days .. fun day out for kids - we've been going the last few years - obviously it's only in Leeds but there will be a few people on here that can attend :smiley:
"Ping! is the free street ping pong festival which sees table tennis tables popping up in remarkable and surprising places nationwide during the summer. The ping pong extravaganza is just too tempting to resist; to join in the fun, simply grab a bat from the side of the table and play - absolutely free of charge! "
Congratulations on VIP Vics :smile:
I'm so happy for you! Well done sweetheart :smiley:<3

The Big Summer Reading Challenge
The Summer Reading Challenge takes place every year during the summer holidays. Kids can sign up at their local library, then read six library books of their choice, collecting stickers and other rewards along the way – all FREE.
This isn't a 'deal' as such, but it's something a bit different, it's free and I think kids would really love it :smile:
The RSPB are holding a BIG WILD SLEEPOUT from 7 - 9 August.
The Big Wild Sleepout is all about spending a night in nature's home and connecting with the natural world all around you. From 7-9 August 2015, we're encouraging families throughout the UK to sleepout overnight, either in their own garden or as part of an organised RSPB event. How you take part is up to you. You could pitch a tent, build a shelter or, if the weather's kind, spend a night under the stars. Wherever you live, nature comes alive at night - what will you see, hear and do?
Use our events map to pinpoint an event near you, visit our 'Getting ready' page for tips on camping and activities, or sign up for your free Big Wild Sleepout explorer pack containing all the info you'll need to take part.
2 Grandparents get FREE ENTRY when accompanied by one full paying person, so give your grandparents a great day out at Gulliver's! Tickets cost £15 each, so 2 adults and 1 child would usually cost £45. Just pay for a child ticket and the oldies get in free.
Available at all 3 locations, Warrington, Milton Keynes and Matlock Bath.

I wouldn't bother with 4D golf tbh. I used to live 5 minutes away from Xscape and 4D Golf is the worst thing there. It's basically a really pants mini golf that's had neon paint splashed around. Such a waste of money imo. I only posted it because I know there'll be people who still go to it not knowing how rubbish it is, and i'm hoping to soften the blow by making it cheaper for them :smile:

I'm in Devon - the weather here doesn't know what it's doing from one day to the next! Still rains good for the garden and let's face it kids love putting on their Wellington boots and splashing in puddles so there's always a bright side - or why not just pop out a paddling pool if you going to get wet anyway may as well enjoy it :smiley:

You think that's bad?!! At least there are decent places to go here - nothing here in Scotland, almost all of these are in England.
I'll have to move down south, and get some some Sun at the same time - been raining here in Aberdeen every day for the last 40 days.... (no seriously, it has!!)

Here you go knew I had the link somewhere -we've used these before can save you money on 2 fr 1 entry etc: http://www.daysoutguide.co.uk this is for all areas as far as see - so if traveling by train you can discount vouchers for attractions etc - in some cases it works out cheaper to buy a short distance train ticket just to get the vouchers!

19 Jul 151#26
Worth checking your local train companies if traveling by train for 2 for 1 offers on attractions -London ones are always available but you can get ones for other areas.
Tastecard - if you are a Tastecard+ member then in addition to the money off dining you get other offers as well, this is only Tastecardplus though - savings can be had in days out by buying through them take a look if you have it.
On a general note http://www.dayoutwiththekids.co.uk lists loads of places to take the kids - you can select by area - may be useful to someone going away to a different county or just looking to entertain the kids a bit :smiley:

We were going up to Edinburgh next week to see the pandas but with the pregnancy and uncertainty over whether we'd actually see them we canned it, Milton Keynes to Edinburgh is a long drive without a guarantee :disappointed:
So I have a week off next week to see what we can do as a family without the restrictions the family deals have.
Don't spend any time doing what I could do, it was a flippant comment pointing out the fact there isn't any real family deals unless your kids are under a certain age :smiley:
We are a family but my daughters are 16 & 21.
Anyone have a good deal for a family as in A FAMILY!
Ta :smiley:
If you give a bit more info what sort of thing you are after e.g. region etc, and will have a quick look
ta
It's also quite easy to find deals and voucher codes doing a quick Google search, and as you know both the places you'd like to visit and the preferred area, it would probably be better for you to look for yourself :smiley:

I wouldn't bother with 4D golf tbh. I used to live 5 minutes away from Xscape and 4D Golf is the worst thing there. It's basically a really pants mini golf that's had neon paint splashed around. Such a waste of money imo. I only posted it because I know there'll be people who still go to it not knowing how rubbish it is, and i'm hoping to soften the blow by making it cheaper for them :smile:
Thank you so much Fairyfeet <3 And thanks for posting so much useful information :smiley:
