Things for children to do in NI...

Jaime-V

I need your help please. My friends are coming to stay with us next week (from England) and i'm trying to think of things to do, places to visit etc. The kids are 6 & 2, the rest of us are big kids

This is what I have gathered up so far, does anyone else have any suggestions, - or better still, any vouchers / offers?

What about the arc open farm between Newtownards and Bangor.

Or the little steam train railway in Downpatrick that goes to Inch Abbey.

Jamie-V all I can say is that Aunt Sandra's should definitely be on your list- it is hilarious and really good fun. I went with a group of kids and they loved it then with a group of teenagers/young adults and they treat them like kids telling them a big fairy story about how the sweets are made which is so funny for them because "Uncle John" tells you everything with a deadpan expression.

Oh and the sweets are to die for especially their honeycombe *dribbles*

Have a look on netmums.com. There's loads of ideas there.
