So, the kids have stopped playing with their Christmas presents ages ago and they\u2019re board. Would you like some ideas on how to entertain them?\u00a0 We\u2019ve come up with some great places to take them and also some DIY at home children’s entertainment for hire<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

A day at the museum
\nLondon museums open their doors on weekends, and at the Science Museum there’s a fab exhibition on the birth of the space age; great for any budding cosmonauts.<\/span><\/p>\n

But if you don\u2019t fancy going out albeit only in the garden, build yourself a bubble-powered rocket fuelled by indigestion tablets. We are sure you will be able to find a great children\u2019s entertainer<\/a>. The right entertainer will keep them amused for hours.<\/span><\/p>\n

A Prima ballerina
\nMake a budding ballerina’s dream come true with a performance of The Nutcracker by the English National Ballet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our suggestion: You can book\u00a0ballet dance shows, with a prima ballerina teaching your child and her friends a ballet class, hair and makeup techniques and even giving a private performance. Move over Angelina mouse!<\/span><\/p>\n

Ski Sunday
\nTake the kids to an indoor snow centre like Snow-Dome in Tamworth \u2013 and of course other dry ski slopes are dotted about throughout the UK, where they can toboggan, snowboard and freestyle to their heart’s content.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Why not hold a ski party! For inside parties, hire an ice sculpture and watch on a big screen some snow-boarding.\u00a0 For outside events, hire an ice rink and even a snow machine if budget will allow. And, of course, you’ll need suitable music – a Snow Patrol tribute band perhaps?<\/span><\/p>\n

Fun at the circus
\nCircus acts are definitely cool this year, and there are some excellent circus shows on offer this year. As the summer holidays are fastly approaching Circus tents will be popping up all over the country which will include trapeze artists, clowns, jugglers, aerialists and acrobats.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Hopefully we’ve given you a bit of inspiration and made you think that next time, instead of you going to the fun; the fun can come to you\u2026 Have a great weekend!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
