Activities to entertain children this summer

With the school summer holidays fast approaching, many parents and carers may be looking for local activities to entertain children and to also provide reasonably priced childcare during the day for those juggling work and family. 

Discover Frome, the one-stop shop for local events and businesses, has compiled a fun-filled roundup, with plenty of ideas to help keep children busy and happy during the summer holidays.  

The guide features a wide variety of camps and workshops on offer, as well as some popular events parents and carers can attend with children. 

Councillor Carla Colonette said, “Discover Frome has pulled together a huge number of interesting and enriching activities for children to take part in over the long summer break. Many of these camps and activities offer your child the opportunity to try a new sport or hobby and they are always great spaces to meet new friends! We encourage residents to visit the round-up page on Discover Frome regularly during the summer, as events will be added throughout the holiday.” 

The handy guide features a wide variety of activities, ranging from forest schools to sports camps, drama productions to tennis coaching and includes plenty of free and low-cost activities, some with funded places available, to keep costs down.

If you have an event or activity taking place over the school summer holidays and you’d like it to be included in the Discover Frome round-up, please email info@frometowncouncil.gov.uk.
