    Well the weather is suppose to be prettty nice for most of the country on friday so why not take them the beach? not sure nearest one to yourself though.

    but its cheap plus ya can teach em how to build the mother of all sandcastles or a barrier wall to keep the sea out (which never worked ever )

    lolly ices all round /picnic /BBQ - mmm BBQ is it right to want a bbq at 8:23am?

    Just a suggestion
