 FAMILY-FRIENDLY THINGS TO DO + HOLIDAY CAMPS IN FEBRUARY 2020 – GENEVA

by Alana Dunsmore

Are your children going a little stir crazy in this cold weather? Looking for indoor activities to keep them busy during the cold snap? We have compiled a win-win list of activities and half-term camps for February to keep your kids out of your hair.

HOLIDAY CAMPS FEBRUARY HALF TERM 

If you’re working or need some time out, we share some of our favourite HOLIDAY CAMPS.

MESSY SCIENCE (NOT AT HOME)  – TOTUP

Erupting volcanoes or making your own slime! Oh my, none of that appeals to the OCD  side of me,  but it does sounds like a kid’s dream!

At Totup your kids will have the opportunity to learn (and make as much of a mess as they want to – in some-one else’s space! Don’t worry, there will be adult supervision.

For ages 3-7 Totup is offering full or half day camp options. Check the link below for all the details.

WHEN

February 10-14, 2020

WHERE

Ave des Morgines 12
Lancy, Geneva

ONCE UPON A TIME…  PAYOT

THINGS TO DO IN GENEVA FOR FAMILIES FEBRUARY 2020

If your children love books, this one’s for you. Once a month on Saturdays the Payout Geneve Rive Gauche has English story time.

Lisa in the English Department reads a story each month with a different theme every time. This is a free event so it might make it a little less painful when you’re nagged to buy a new book afterwards. The coffee shop in Payot is a good spot to enjoy a Latté (for you) and cookies (for them) afterwards.

Note: Adults are required to stay during the session.

COST

Free

WATCH BASKETBALL (…AND ENJOY A MASSAGE)

THINGS TO DO IN GENEVA FOR FAMILIES FEBRUARY 2020

We’ve discovered Geneva’s basketball team – a great way to keep my husband and son occupied! My husband will watch mostly any sport, which means my son will want to watch it too because he idolises his dad. Good dad and son quality time!

So, I can either go along or – more likely option – sneak away for a massage or facial. The best thing about it? Entrance is free.
