June newsletter

Dear All,

Summer holidays are getting closer and … let’s be honest: for any mother willing to entertain her kids on a bright (!) way, les grandes vacances are at the time rejoycing and challenging, and we all see them coming with mixed feelings of excitement  and a tiny bit of anxiety!

So, here are our tips:

Ø  An orginal Father’s day? Order a eco car-wash at your place!

Ø  Terraces with kids?

ü  Paviljoen in Eindhoven

ü  Pancakes house in Waalre

ü  Restaurant Twee in Weert (with baby-sitting!)

ü  Leemerhoef in Waalre (also baby-sitting on week-ends)

Ø  Summer camps: day or stay camps

ü Sport: horsebackrijding camps on this list, choose for a  day or stay formule in Eindhoven with the following maneges: Eerste Eindhovense Poney Manege of Hippo d’Or Manege; soccer and other sports camps are also possible with Procamp and SportMax; for swimming, try the Zib Zwemcentrum in Best for either high quality lessons or waterfun in a chlorine-free water! For an efficient working-out arrangement, check on the Summerfun & Sport Weeks from 6 to 10 August. More tips on our blog. On friday 13 july: free working out afternoon for all ages at the Ijssportcentrum Eindhoven (Antoon Coolenlaan 3, 5644RX), from 12.00 to 16.00.
