Wherever you\u2019re going in the holidays these Button Binoculars are a great way to get the children really looking at and talking about their surroundings. It could be some birds you spot on a walk to the park or a list of things you look out for on a car or train journey.

If you\u2019re lucky enough to be heading on a longer journey then these four free printable travel games from Transpennine Express <\/a>are going to be a great hit. \u00a0They\u2019re simple enough for kids to do themselves and great fun for the whole family to play together too. What\u2019s more, you can print out as many as you like for free!<\/p>\n Free Printable Travel Games Include:<\/p>\n I like the idea of printing a few of each type of travel game and stapling them together to make a little journey activity book and don\u2019t forget the kids can draw pictures on the back too! Pop them in your bag with some pencil crayons and you\u2019re good to go!<\/p>\n Needing some inspiration for exciting things to see and do this holiday?

(Valid between 17 \u2013 28th October 2016.)<\/p>\n I spy with my little eye, something beginning with B\u2026BUTTON BINOCULARS!<\/p>\n This binoculars craft is really easy to make and to personalise. Kids will love looking for things to spot when they\u2019re out and about on walks and journeys. It\u2019s a fun way to focus children\u2019s attention and observation skills.<\/p>\n Cover your tissue paper in glue and wrap it around the cardboard tubes. Snip the ends and glue them flat onto the inside.<\/p>\n Glue the two cardboard tubes together securely. Punch<\/a> a hole on each side and attach your ribbon to make a neck loop. I couldn\u2019t resist the hot pink feather trim<\/a>\u00a0and Zig Zag Blue Ribbon<\/a>! Why shouldn\u2019t a binoculars craft be glamorous and fun? Finish off your homemade binoculars by glueing on lots of colourful buttons. I love these little wooden flower buttons<\/a> and selection of blue buttons in a range of sizes<\/a>. They are just perfect for kids to mix and match. (For speed I used a glue gun<\/a>.)<\/p>\n What will your little ones like to spot through their button binoculars craft? Perhaps they\u2019re a train lover or avid bird spotter?
