British Holiday Parks

When it comes to ensuring the family have a good time on your summer break, there is really only one set of individuals to consider: the kids.

If you’re pride and joy are having fun, then invariably, so will you - but we all know that when it comes to leaving the nest it’s a real battle to decide what to take and what to leave at home. Here’s the BHP guide to what childrens toys stay, and which go along for the ride.

The Teddy Bear

Ah, the trusty teddy bear. How could you not take this little bundle of joy along with you? It’s small, lightweight and gives your little ones the comfort they need when trying to get them into bed at a reasonable hour.
BHP verdict: take with you.

Inflatable Ball Pit

I’m sure you all know what we’re going to say to this one. The ball pit is great fun at home, but a veritable nightmare while on holiday. For starters, even deflated this thing takes up a fair amount of space, and thats without all those balls to think about! there’s really only one way this is going…
BHP verdict: leave at home.

Thomas the Tank Engine

the toddlers favourite. A holiday just isn’t a holiday without our old friend Thomas being bashed into our ankles and thrown from open windows. It’s small enough not to cause an issue with space and translates into hours of enjoyment.
BHP verdict: take with you.

The Bike

When’s a family holiday not a family holiday? Sounds like a stupid question I know, but the answer is when you don’t have your bikes! The real question though, is do you take your own or hire them at your destination? it’s a tough cookie. On the one hand, kids love their own bikes, but on the other hand they’re a lot of effort to shift from one place to another. But, if you have the necessary bike racks on your car, there’s really only one recommendation we can make…
BHP verdict: take with you.

The Frisbee

Small, lightwight, and great fun with the kids. The Frisbee is the ultimate holiday toy when it comes to portability vs enjoyment. We personally recommend red ones.
BHP verdict: take with you.

So there you have it. The team here at BHP have been looking at toys for the last hour so we better get back to work. Ciao.
