It’s the first school holiday of the year, so naturally, there are plenty of fun things to choose from to amuse your little ones! As different areas of the country take their school breaks at different times, we thought we’d sift through some of the many events that are going on all over the UK and offer our suggestions, so wherever you are, you can get inspired with things to do during half term.

In Cheshire there’s an event especially for the toddlers in the family, Toddler’s Story time admission is included with the price of your ticket into the Ness Botanic Gardens, find out more here.
