BOOK ahead and bag a half-term deal for the family.
The October half-term is around the corner — and this year it could be more expensive than ever.
Five cash-savvy ideas to treat the kids to a day out during October half-term
But you can treat the kids and enjoy a big saving if you sort it now.
SPLASH OUT: Flumes, slides and wave machines are a brilliant way to keep children busy and tire them out!
Waterparks get booked up quickly for half-term but buy ahead and you can usually get an advance discount.
The Alton Towers Waterpark is £22 per person on the day but you can reserve your spot for £16.50 per person, saving £5.50 a ticket.
ACT UP: Fancy seeing a West End show? There are still seats for productions such as Frozen The Musical.
You can get up to 15 per cent off tickets to see Matilda The Musical — with prices starting at £24pp — booking via londontheatredirect.com by September 30.
FLY HIGH: Sign up for a family activity holiday at pgl.co.uk and you could be ziplining, kayaking or even trying your hand at archery.
You will be paired with other families, so there might be a chance to share the load while having fun.
Book for October half-term now and save 20 per cent when you use the code AUT20.
TRUST US: The National Trust has so many amazing days out and adventures for the family.
Many of its nature trails will get a spooky update for half-term, which children will love.
Not all events will require booking but it’s a good idea to check out nationaltrust.org.uk for what’s on in your area.
At Waddesdon Manor, Bucks (waddesdon.org.uk), take the kids on a magical beasts mythical safari from £3.50pp, which you need to book now.
PICK YOUR OWN: In recent years, visiting a pumpkin patch with the family has become a must-do and tickets can sell out quickly.
Avoid any disappointment and take advantage of early bird offers by booking ahead.
At Foxes Farm in Basildon, Essex (foxesfarmproduce.co.uk), its new twilight pumpkin picking tickets are available from £3.75.
