Half term is always a juggling act, isn’t it? If you’re looking for more ideas to fill the days — whether you’re after something free, something rainy-day-proof, or something that gets the kids off screens — have a browse through my rainy day ideas pack, which is packed with things to do right here in Northamptonshire. Wicksteed Park is the kind of classic family day out that I’d always recommend having in your back pocket for half term — it’s one of those places that genuinely keeps kids entertained from the moment you arrive to the moment you (eventually) drag them back to the car.
