As the sun beams down on Northamptonshire, many of us are wondering what to do to keep the kids entertained this weekend.
With the need for social distancing as important as ever, outdoor family fun days are a great option, especially as many attractions have adapted their business to make sure fun can be had safely and inline with the Covid guidelines.
Across the county there are plenty of great options including parks, farms, stately homes, strawberry picking and more that families can enjoy responsibly.
From Mini Meadows in Welford, to the nature trail at Rushden Lakes, there is something for everyone, no matter how old your children are or how far you want to travel.
And for those who want to venture a bit further, there are also some great options just outside of the county too.
Below is a list of 13 great family fun days out and how they have been adapted to fit the current Government guidelines. All attractions ask that visitors adhere to the social distancing rule.
9. Woburn Safari Park, Woburn
If you're happy to travel, the safari park is a great day out. The foot safari and outdoor play area are open and staff are taking on an increased cleaning routine. Pre-booking is advised. Photo: Woburn Safari Park.
10. Rushden Lakes, Rushden
The nature trail is a relatively short wooded walk perfect for little legs. It is lined with wooden sculptures and there is a great play area.
11. Grange Farm, Harpole
Strawberry picking could be a great way to get the little ones to eat more fruit and an easy activity to do while social distancing. There is also a fun Maize Maze on site. Just check the farm's Facebook page before you go as sometimes strawberry picking is suspended to let the fruit grow.
12. Gulliver's Land, Milton Keynes
For the thrill-seekers, Gulliver's is operating temperature checks and pre-bookings to reduce capacity. There are hand sanitising stations dotted around, staff have been specifically trained and customers are asked to wear face coverings.
