Beat it 

Tap into your kids’ creative streak on a drum kit made of pots and pans.
They can crash, bang and wallop their time (and pent up energy) away.
It’s a great way to work up an appetite, too. Soon they’ll be asking what you’re drumming up for dinner.  

Treasure hunt 

Discover the explorer in your kids by feeding their imagination with a treasure hunt. Set them sneaky clues to solve and watch them travel through shark-infested rugs, climb over cushion mountains, enter wardrobe caves and fight off the duvet monsters that guard the treasure … and all before teatime.
