Play for all ages: Water Play!
Summer holidays are in full swing across the UK, and this might mean you’re suddenly in charge of entertaining multiple children (of very different ages). With the days and weeks stretching out in front of you it can seem impossible to find activities which will entertain them all – and that’s where we come in. Over the summer months we will share articles all about adapting simple, joyful play for children of all ages so you can focus on the important things.
