Spring into action this Easter

T HE Easter holidays will soon be here and that means keeping the kids entertained for a fortnight.

It's quite a task for parents, but never fear, help is at hand. We've been scouring the area for some of the best Easter events and attractions open to all the family over the holiday period.

In each case visit the attraction's website for more details and to book your places.

OPEN AIR BOUNCE

The outdoor bounce park is returning in time for the Easter holidays - this time with the 'country's largest inflatable'.

Based on Umberton Farm, in Over Hulton, Bolton, the attraction is packed with 15 huge inflatables including bouncy castles, slides and obstacle courses. This year there will be longer play sessions, extra dates and even more characters and entertainment. It's open from March 29 until April 14, with special events planned in the Easter holidays. Tickets for Open Air Bounce cost £9.95 for ages one to three and £12.95 for ages four and above, including adults. Under 12 months go free and adults who aren't bouncing pay £2.50 entry.

RHS GARDEN BRIDGEWATER

Families are invited to enjoy 'a supersized adventure' and fun activities at RHS Garden Bridgewater this Easter. Explorers of all ages can explore the trail round the garden to find the giant eggs which have been hand painted by artists Cath Ford and Alastair Price.

The eggs are based on ideas created by local school children and community groups, with some brand new designs for 2024. Children who successfully find all of the hidden eggs will be rewarded with a free chocolatey treat from NOMO vegan and 'free from' chocolate brand. As well as the daily Easter egg trail running from March 29 to April 14 there are lots more family-friendly activities to try out.
