Holiday Activities 

Kids clubs and supervised activities
 
Swindon Summer 2008
With six weeks off in the summer it's a great time to be a kid. But maybe not so much fun if you're a parent!
 
With work commitments and everything else to do it can be tricky keeping the little ones happy and surpervised. And sometimes we all just need a break as well.
 
Here we've come up with a few ideas for children's activities that are supervised such as kids holiday clubs and STFC football training days.
 
Most do require registration beforehand, so it pays to book early.
 
All STEAMED up...

Smiley Catz Club
 
Steam Museum Holiday Club
Holiday fun:
make tracks for the
STEAM museum
Smiley Cats will also be running every Wednesday in the Summer holidays.

Activities tend to run from 10:00am to 4:00pm and include arts and crafts, face painting and parachute games as well as a supervised tour around the Museum.
 
Healthy mid- morning snacks, such as fruit, will be provided and all arts and crafts materials are included.

Seriously good fun for children of ages 4-15 years with activities as wide and varied as role playing/acting, discos/dancing, name games, tennis, football, space and loads more.

There's also plenty to keep the kids entertained at the Borders book store at the Orbital Shopping Park this summer.
 
Different themed weeks - from Space to Dinasours - with arts and crafts workshops and storytelling mean that mum and dad can take a break upstairs in Starbucks while the kids enjoy the fun.
