Despite there now being well over a hundred different family friendly festivals to choose from across the UK, the reaction from the majority of people is: “Why on earth would you want to take your children to a festival?” Here’s why: 1 You can still have your evenings In a hotel, you often have to all got to bed when the children do, but there’s no need to at a festival. You can sit outside the tent and chat or (if you’re lucky) pop them to sleep in a buggy and enjoy some of the evening festival! 2 It’s easy not to cook Family friendly festivals have lots of lovely food options so that you can eat a different thing at every meal time if you don’t want to cook. 3 Your children will learn from it Most festivals hold a variety of different workshops for children– from art and crafts, to dancing and drumming, to science and nature. 4 You will have the freedom to enjoy your second childhood If you want to wear butterfly wings, do arts and crafts, participate in an egg and spoon race, or a dance-off, or just run around blowing bubbles – you can! And so can the kids! 5 There is always something to do From when you get up in the morning to when you fall into bed at night, there is a guarantee the kids will be entertained. Kite making, drumming workshops, face painting, balloon modelling can often be found. Plus they will no doubt make lots of new friends to play with too. 6 You don’t have to drive anywhere Once you’re there and set up, that’s it! You can just wander around and there’s none of the ‘getting in and out of the car’ palaver, no need to find places to go and no screaming in the back seat – it’s bliss! 7 Your children will love it! Children love camping. Children love music. Children love dancing. Children love making things, they love picnics, they love being close to nature, they love dressing up in fancy dress and generally being silly (and let’s face it - so do us grown-ups!)
