Deals on Days out with Your Family
Since the advent of the internet, satellite and cable television, and games consoles, it’s widely assumed that children simply don’t enjoy spending time with their families anymore, and this simply is not the case. Whilst it’s true that in rainy Britain a lot of time is spent indoors, and teenagers are becoming more and more disaffected about playing things like board games with their families, it’s a misconception that teenagers are becoming more antisocial. They’ve always been like that.
Children, particularly young children, gain a great deal from a day out with their parents and siblings. Not only is it usually extremely enjoyable, providing you’ve chosen the right activity for them. A visit to a theme park is always a popular choice, as they are generally considered cool amongst younger generations, and there are a wide variety of rides and attractions which can cater for children of all ages, as well as popular fast food restaurants. Other popular attractions include places like farms and safari parks, after all, what child doesn’t like animals? Visits to the seaside are also a regular choice, partially because a day out at the beach is relatively cheap.
Unlike the beach, however, a day out at a theme park is not cheap at all. The cost of entry alone is sometimes astronomical, depending on which theme park you’re visiting, and you are, of course, not just paying for your child to enter the park, but yourself, and any spouses, partners and siblings that may be tagging along. The cost can mount up very quickly.
Fortunately, there are ways to save money on everything from the price of park entry to the cost of a burger or ride photo. The theme park itself will usually offer a basic discount for a family, and children’s ticket prices are slightly lower than the price for an adult, but if you come prepared you can save a fortune. Magazines and newspapers regularly have coupons and vouchers that you can cut out and save on the price of entry, and the internet has a selection of sites offering discounts you can gain access to if you just search for them.
It’s not just theme parks though. You can save money on a wide variety of attractions if you search the internet for vouchers. Usually you can print the vouchers off, or some sites let you display the coupon on your mobile phone when you’re paying to enter or buy almost anything. Even that games console.
If you’re planning a day out with your family, you can save money with discount sites like JungleDrum. You can get offers on Alton Towers tickets as well as a variety of other theme parks and attractions.
