Issue 131 is here, and this autumn we're talking about trust. Trust in your own parenting instincts, and trust in your children to find their own way.
After a summer that many of us spent sitting in the shade, cooler September is a chance to get out in wide open spaces. Head to a crowd-free beach, enjoy foraging, or spend the day at a harvest festival. Closer to home, make your own Bayeux Tapestry or track garden critters with a footprint tunnel.
Dry and relentlessly hot, this August we are looking for ways to spend time outside and stay cool. Try water games, go on a woodland sound safari, or venture out at night to spot bats and shooting stars. Plus a big eclipse you can't miss and fun ways to celebrate Lammas!
If your family's idea of a perfect summer Saturday involves giant bubbles, acrobats, science experiments and dancing on a hillside with all of London spread out below, Kaleidoscope Festival might be the day out for you.
Yes, it's hot. Cool off with icy garden games, play hide-and-seek in a shady forest, or lay in the long grass of a meadow and count butterflies. Or seek refuge in a gallery; find celebrations of fairy tales and huge, community-shaped artworks. Plus free festivals and witchy walks!
Light evenings and mornings mean more time for fun. Celebrate solstice with a dawn dip or magical ferns, or cool off with ice play or snacking on frozen yoghurt bark. Plus free festivals galore and games to play on your bikes!
