air kix and days out in Manchester

Booked 3 days in Manchester for next bank holiday for family of 4, wanting to take my 2 son's age 12 & 9 to air kix, does anyone know of any discounts going as full price will cost £98? Also any recommendations of any good places to take them around manchester, or the best place to get discount tickets.
Cheers :beer:

    The Football Museum!

    Also you can book a tour at CBBC (if they're not too old) at Media City, there's another museum there too.

    The Football Museum and MOSI are both free, and well worth a visit. I would also suggest the IWM North and The Lowry museum, both of which are also free.

    For airkix I'd suggest looking at somewhere like Virgin Experience days or something similar. We managed to get 2 of us for £35 including a dvd as it was on a 2-4-1deal. You can usually get cashback too.
    Next door to airkix is the chill factor which is an indoor ski slope. It also has a few other activities such as sledging,luge and tubing which is a good laugh. Offers usually available on groupon or their website
    There's also a huge crazy golf place and high ropes adventure place at the trafford centre,as well as the sea life centre and legoland
    Both Manchester United and Man City offer stadium tours. As others have said museum of science and industry is good, and possibly imperial war museum too
    Nearby there's Blackpool, and Liverpool / Chester within a short drive too.
