Yes
since its half term the GF is off work and the little one is off school, where's the best place to go?, good to photograph but fun for molly (daughter, 3), I don't mind driving 90mins to go somewhere interesting either

my GF has mentioned somewhere where they let you hold spiders, centipedes ect but has no idea where it is and nor do I

we're based on the wirral but as I have said willing to go drive to go some where good

thanks for your time

anyone? lol bed soon and then up early to go somewhere so need ideas!!
 
Been suggested already but Chester Zoo is a great place and should keep all of you, especially your daughter, happy.

I havn't been for a few years but will next time we are in the area.

Hope the weather is good for you whatever you choose :thumbs:
 
Blue planet - I really enjoyed my visit a while back - can't really hold things though (well you can, but I don't think you are meant to ;) )
 
cheers for the suggestions guys

we have been to chester zoo, knowsly and ble planet in the past few months, so dont think it will be to any of them,

jodrell bank, isnt it a little too old for a 3 year old? as for liverpool via ferry we have done it to death plus its a 5 min drive to the ferry terminal from my house, so not really a day out :lol:

hmmmm dunno where to go!
 
Museum of science and industry in Manchester. Free entry and you can go around and see planes trian and automobiles as well as the kids doing some sciency stuff.
 
Manchester Science & Industry Museum is worth a day out. East lancs railway in Bury perhaps too??
 
Stapeley Water Gardens in Nantwich, about an hour from you and they have a place called The Palms which is a tropical house with some snakes and spiders, frogs and large koi carp. There is also a small aquarium and a cafe. Its not free but not too expensive and its lovely and warm. Then after you can go into Nantwich itself and photograph the old b&w buildings before visiting one (or more) of the lovely pubs and then getting the gf to drive you home. Perfect day.

thanks for the replys guys.

In the end my GF found a place in telford where the kids could ride ponys and what not see goat races ect, but what she didnt read on the website that it was shut until late march :/ we found that out when we got there

luckily satnav guided us 30ish miles to drayton manor where they have a Thomas the tank engine land which the kids absolutely loved, and so did we just seeing them light up when they took a ride on Thomas the tank engine was awesome and my daughter who usually crys with fear when on anything that travels faster than walking speed took me on the kids roller coaster 4 times she loved it that much

highly recommend entry prices are quite steep £14 for +12's luckily my daughter and nephew are under 4 so went free
