Links to Kids Stuff in Berkshire
|
|
We started this website a few years ago as we have kids of our own and were looking for things to do. Time moves on, venues change hands, new fun venues for kids are created, others cease to be.
Click on the links down the right to find out more about them. If you know a venue is no more then please let us know so we can delete it. Also dates may be a year or so old... if there is no active link, simply search for the venue using Google and that should point you to their main site and current activities. Thank you.
