Top Tips for Family Outings

Whether enjoying a festival, weekend, or general family fun, you should always be prepared. Here are some essentials key to a smooth running family adventure:

  • A roll of toilet paper and baby wipes - you never know how you will find public toilets.
  • A handy bottle of hand sanitizer never goes astray and keeps that bacteria at bay.
  • The right camping gear – we can't trust the weather folk, and enough blankets and sleeping bags will ensure a cosy, comfy night with the kids.
  • Light rain gear will ensure that if the weather holds off, you won’t have too much baggage to enjoy the surroundings, but they will be on hand should the skies open up!
  • Check out the schedule on arrival for family activities – these are great to get the little ones involved, making friends and ensure they will be kept entertained throughout.
  • Have an arranged meeting point!! Not to scare the young ones, or adults either, but we all know it can happen that we may get split up throughout the weekend.
  • Ensure that your little ones know where to go, or who to talk to should they be lost. It is ideal to make them aware of those kind fellows in the high-vis jackets at events, letting them know they are always on hand to help.

Most importantly, enjoy yourself, and don’t be afraid of having a nice treat for you and the family from the food stalls. It is a festival (or day out) after all!
