4 simple activities to keep the little ones entertained during the sunny evenings

Jade Hayden

The sun is really helping the mood, as we wait for the country to open back up.

Take advantage of that long stretch with these easy bonding activities that are fun, no matter what age the smallies are.

1. Have a back garden picnic 

So simple, yet so divine.

Often when people think ‘picnic’, they imagine lugging everything you own into your car and driving halfway round the country to sit on the grass.

However, picnics can also happen out in the back garden, no bother at all. Just grab a blanket, some plastic glasses and pasta salad and you’re sorted. They’ll think it’s great craic.

2. Go on a nature walk 

Nature is lovely, walks are lovely – the two together are an absolute dream.

There’s honestly no better time to get out and about in your local park or woods.

3. Have a basic cooking class 

Let them loose in the kitchen as you whip up something simple, like a fruit cocktail, or some rice krispie buns together. Delish.

4. Get the BBQ out 

Novelty dinners FTW – they’ll have fun and you get tasty burgers. Everyone’s a winner.
