It can be a challenge to keep little ones entertained during half term, especially with so many. They creep upon us and before you know it you have got children with bundles of energy and nothing planned ahead.  

This will hopefully help you to stay organised and give a helping hand with activities to keep the whole family entertained.  

You can guarantee that on the first day of a half term in Devon, it will rain! Not to worry we have got you covered. Rain or shine after reading this, you will find something to do no matter the weather.

There’s nothing we need more in the half term than coffee and a place to let your little ones run free, which is why we recommend Quay Soft Play. Located in the centre of Braunton it is the perfect spot for parents to chill and children to go wild.
