KIDS SUMMER HOLIDAYS 2011


Wouldn't you like to spend your summer holiday in this camping car?

I've been looking for activities for my almost 7-year old son for this summer holidays. I'm a bit concerned because I work during the day (only until 2-3 pm though but still...) and I was actually looking for a summer camp where he would spend half a day there every day. Unfortunately, the one I found came highly un-recommended by 2 friends so I had to drop that idea.

So 2 days ago, I went on my own hunt for activities, so I thought I'd share them here in case you too are searching for activities for your child:
