School's out for summer

And parents everywhere are searching for ways to keep the brood occupied over the coming weeks. It's no easy task keeping kids busy for the summer holiday, so here at findmeagift.com we've come up with some ideas for keeping your little angels from turning into little devils over the summer hols!

Let the Games begin
There's nothing like a good old fashioned game to keep your kids out of trouble. Why not get them outside in the garden for a game of football? And you can make the beautiful game even more fun with Funkix Digi Football Bean Bag - it counts your kicks! Or if it's a rainy day, sit them down with that classic gadget, the Rubik's Cube - it's one way to keep them busy for hours on end. Carrying on with the retro theme, you could always invest in a Giant 4 In A Row Garden Game, which provides a great way for the kids to play together. It's pretty impressive to look at too, so would make a really good birthday gift - if you can afford that much wrapping paper!

Cooking and Crafty Activities
...
... The summer hols are a great time to get creative with your kids. Drawing and painting is always fun so the Paint Your Own Mug kit provides an interesting change from painting on card or paper - plus the finished mug will be a keepsake that you'll treasure as your child grows up. Alternatively, painted mugs make great little gifts for grandparents or other doting relatives.

Cooking is another good way for kids to be creative and it can be a fantastic way for you to spend some quality time with them too! The Heart Frying Pan is a fun way to teach them the simple skill of frying a (heart-shaped) egg. Or why not make some Heart Shaped Pasta (this is a great gift to keep in mind for Valentines Day too)? If pasta's not your thing, you could simply bake a cake with your kids. We have a Set of 4 Mixing Bowls with Lids in bold, bright colours that are sure to appeal to all little chefs out there.

Days Out
Kids love getting out and about, so organising a day trip is always a winner during the summer holidays. If the sun's out, whip up a picnic and take a trip to the seaside. If it's raining, you can always go swimming at your local pool and for a meal afterwards - you don't always need the sun to have fun!

But if you're looking for an extra special day out, we have a great range of activity days that you can book for the whole family - from a Diggerland Family Experience to a Camelot Theme Park Experience. A memorable day out is a fab way to celebrate a birthday or to simply spend some time having fun with your family.
