Halfterm ideas for family with huge age gap

baxterdo

Hi,

I have an age gap of 10 years between my children (yes I know I'm mad). I'm struggling to find things to do which they would both find fun aside from park and swimming. My son is 11 and daughter is 16 months. Has anyone else out there got a huge age gap. What do you do that works out well for both?

Thanks

I didn't have that huge age gap, but I did have 'awkward' children.

Taking a friend for the older one might help if you wanted to go somewhere and let them disappear for half an hour at a time.

my eldest is 14 and youngest 18 months (5 alltogether) we went penny bowling yesterday and everyone but poor baby enjoyed it plus we all had something to eat after to spread the day out a bit.
theme parks are a good idea if you are 1 , rich enough, 2, brave enough as usually have something for all ages.
