Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle or nanny, you might be looking for things to do with the kids these school holidays. We’ve rounded up a packed list of ideas for every age group, from a motorcycle or aircraft museum, to a fossil park, role play village, educational activities and more. From free to affordable, here’s 18 things to do in the school holidays.
   

NEW “PARK” IN SEA POINT 

You’ll find Prom Park between the Putt Putt Course and Blue Train Park along the Sea Point promenade. It has bicycle and kayak hire, a play area with giant bird nests that kids can climb, and adventure tours. You’re covered for food too: There’s hot dogs, bagels from Ty’s Bagels and sorbet from Island Way which comes in real fruit shells. 

Ages: All
