Bournemouth!

Hi all... going to Bournemouth for 4 days next week, but never been before. Can anyone recommend attractions/places to go for a family with a 6yr old and a 4yr old? We're staying in Alum Chine area. Thanks!:D

A ride on an open top bus to Sandbanks is fun, and then go across on the ferry to the beach at Studland bay.

if you have Tesco vouchers then you can exchange them for Adventure Wonderland next to the airport, basically a 'theme park' but aimed at 2-12 year olds with rides and indoor play stuff. Works out about £2.30 a ticket in Tesco vouchers (£37 for 4 tickets in real money)

Moors Valley country park at top of A338, has a small railway and station etc that is working pretty much most of the year, various playgrounds along with a big forest trail with activities in clearings every few hundred yards, costs for car park and a couple of quid on the train.

Littledown Centre has swimming pools and playgrounds outside and various stuff

Farmer Palmers on the other side of Poole has animal feeding along with various barns and activities with slides.tractors and the like

Christchurch Quay again playgrounds but also walks along river and sea and a fairly quiet town to wander around.

The Oceanarium at Bournemouth seafront, the beach, the sea, the Bournemouth Eye
