What Will You Do With Your Family During The School Summer Holidays?

What will your family be getting up to during the school summer holiday? National Express has polled 2000 UK families to find out exactly what the average family has planned.

According to their findings, children will be taking 11 day trips, spend 11.5 hours at the swimming pool and 9 hours at the cinema.

During the traditional six-week break, families will also be racking up a tiring 344 miles of travel and paying for 19 ice creams.

The seaside came up as the place parents favoured the most for a day out with children, followed by the cinema and thirdly the local park.

The ten most popular day trips or entertainment excursions were found to be:

1. The beach/seaside
2. The cinema
3. The park
4. The swimming pool
5. A walking trail
6. An amusement park
7. A water park
8. A bike ride in the countryside
9. A museum
10. A friend’s house

Spokesperson for National Express, Chris Hardy said: “Our research revealed that six in 10 parents worry their children will spend too long indoors during the summer holidays.

“And two thirds of parents see the summer break as an opportunity to take their kids to see parts of the UK they wouldn’t normally visit.”
