Kids resort to taking a break at a resort
Sometimes the kids just need to get away from it all. You know, from the daily grind of eating, playing, more eating, more playing, but mostly they need a break from their parents. So sitting around a room with your parents, or going swimming with your parents, no matter how nice the resort, just doesn’t cut it for kids. We’ve discovered this summer how well Tigh-Na-Mara resort in Parksville understands that.
We’ve been discovering the variety of kids’ activities they offer, from day camps to building stuffed bears to beading to movie nights, and tennis or swimming lessons. Grace and Ella have been having a blast and there’s always some artwork or project they’re bringing home with them. The day camp in particular is great fun and unless things get really rainy, it’s all held outdoors under the shade of trees, so the kids get a full day of fresh air and sunshine without the burn. And that means – thankfully – they usually get to sleep nice and early at night (my concern here is for the children’s health and well-being, of course). Most activities are available for a fee to non-residents of the resort, but always check ahead and book for activities, as they fill up fast.
