Lookin for some ideas for good days out here in the north east.

 

Done the usual

 

Flamingo land

Lightwatervalley

Whitehouse Farm etc

 

Just want some ideas, preferrably outdoors and not a million miles away as the little one gets sick in the car

 

Hey yeah, and any ideas on how you've dealt with travel sickness in the past would be great too, 'cos those joyride tablets don't work and neither does piriton!

 

Ta muchly ;)

Seahouses while there's still a chance of decent weather!

 

Only for the boats to the Farne islands (not good for motion sickness!), otherwise Bamburgh is nicer imo. But stop in Seahouses for chips.

 

Beamish is not far to go.

 

As for travel sickness in a kid, hmmm. Not sure really, can't see why piriton would help though. BNF says Hyoscine hydrochloride is best (trade name is Joy-rides believe it or not).

Bamburgh is lovely this time of year whereas Seahouses is only good for decent fish and chips and sailing to the farne islands as Renton said!

 

Travel sickness is a strange one. we normaly dont let the kids read anything (or watch anything if you're flash and you have a dvd player) and try not to give them too many liquids. of course the downside of that is we get a lot of "are we there yet?" but its a small price to pay if it keeps the back of your car barf free!
