Hi, we are new to this site and caravanning. Have had a few outings in the tourer and loving it. We have 2 young children (aged 4 and 2) and was wondering if anyone could recommend any rallys or events we could try that are aimed at families with young children. It would be nice for the kids to have guaranteed other children to play with and for us to enjoy some sociallising too (organised family bbq event/weekend for example). We live in the Staffordshire.

Thanks

Hi, we are just getting into camping - amassing the kit - hopefully will camp this year with plenty of trips next year.

We have a lively 5 yr old who loves football and a 3 yr going on 13! would be interested in meeting other fellow campers with similar aged kids to run around with!

Would also be keen to hear about sites that are child friendly.

Cheers

Darren

Hi! We live in Derby and have 2 boys aged 5 and 3.

I'm guessing Derbyshire is going to be quite a central location for all those that have expressed an interest so far?

Is anyone going to be brave and suggest a date that we could arrange a small meet over the summer?!

If you cant do someone a good turn,don`t do them a bad one,its nice to be nice you know,and little things mean much more later in life. Pete.
