Scottish Elises

I am looking after my 6yr old niece this weekend and was looking for suggestions of what to do with her (heard your no longer allowed to throw then into the Don if they are bad)

Any parents with some good ideas of events this weekend?

Cineworld kills a few hours on a Sat or Sun morning with the Kids Matinee, choice of Queens Links or Union Square. I go to the Union Sq as decent shops/restaurants as well as the cinema

this will kill a couple of hours and the cimena and the arcades (and the beach if its nice) are all esy walking distance.

Doonies Farm maybe but I've never been.
Satrosphere crappy last time I went. Codonas always a good shout. Lots to do and have ten pin bowling too.
Could head up to Macduff Aquarium.
Take her to the pub if the rugby is on

There's a falconry centre up near Huntly which kids love, but i suspect it may be closed just now.

Grampian Transport Museum?

Are the hot houses still open at Duthie Park?

My pal Murray and I will be putting the engine back in his Fury on Saturday. She could give us a hand if she wants.

It's a nice red colour.



Cheers,

Duthie Park botanic gardens not a bad shout. My kids like a run around in there....and it's free.

Wynford Farm soft play barn at the back of Westhill? Indoor slides and climbing frames, ball pits, ride on tractors, etc. Adults can go on it all too if your niece is shy of other kids. Not too expensive (four quid'ish entry for the kid, parents are free) and they have coffee and bacon rolls/cakes too. All the kids I know seem to love it. Will be mobbed but never seen it so busy that it would put me off. Just don't go with a hangover; the noise is nuts. Will be good for a couple of hours entertainment, then head to Westhill for lunch and/or swimming in the public pool in the afternoon? She'll sleep well after that

If the weather is nice then a trip to Stonehaven to Auntie Bettys sweet shop, the ice creams are fab followed by a wander along the sea front.

Folks,

Thanks for all the recommendations. Managed to get her to bed at 21:00 without the use of drugs or alcohol, hoping that she does not wake till at least 08:00

Ps Eric if it's really manic I reckon Auntie Sandra could be asking to help out

Wintergardens are fabulous and free

My 3 year old nephew enjoyed the science place - stratosphere ( or something like that)
