The Easter school holidays have arrived, which means for many parents and guardians, it’s time to make some plans for the period to keep the young ones entertained.

That’s why we’ve taken a look across a number of locations in the area to bring to you 32 family-friendly events, all of which either free or set to cost you a small amount, rather than a small fortune.
Be it walking trails filled with hidden Easter treasures, going to the farm to see rabbits and ducklings during the warmer Spring days or meeting prehistoric dinosaurs, here’s our round up of the best family-themed activities to do during the East bank holidays - at an affordable price.
