Whether it’s the school holidays or the weekend is coming up, you might be wondering how you will keep your children entertained, without spending a fortune.

Giving children the freedom to be imaginative and creative through play can be more valuable than costly toys or expensive days out. You’ll find plenty of low-cost and free adventures on our website that children can enjoy at home and in our communities, over the summer and beyond.

Looking for inspiration? Watch our new short film featuring children from across Wales, to mark Playday 2023 – Playing on a shoestring – making everyday an adventure.

The film shows simple play ideas that don’t need to involve expensive activities, costly toys, or trips to far-off destinations this summer, as children around Wales are presented with a box of everyday household items to inspire play.
