Looks interesting, but my kids are both older than 12 now.
I used to go to the US Family Fun site a lot when I was still in mourning for our last trip. (There is also a Family.com site for the US which I find quite interesting, I love to read the American way of doing things, especially when I'm pining for a holiday - I do miss getting my Disney Magazine .)
I've just looked at their article "A stress free family day out in London." Living so close to London, I'm always on the look out for new things to do up there. I was amazed at this article as all they suggested was carry your things in a rucksack and don't travel in the rush hour .
Absolutely no advice on family friendly activities or money saving ideas. What was the point of writing it ?
