How to entertain your kids during the autumn break
As leaves start to fall, temperatures are dropping, days are shortening and rainy days are ahead, All Saints' Day and autumn break are right around the corner. Already in despair with the perspective of having to entertain your little bundle of joy for an entire week? No worries, we’ve got you covered! Instead of looking at it as an endless ocean of time, look on the bright sight and consider it as some very welcome family time. Here is your instant ready autumn break schedule, that is rainy weather forecast proof!
Day 1: Bake your own bread
On a rainy day when it’s pouring outside, baking is an absolute must. The new Niamh mixes allow you to discover the world from your own kitchen. Around the world, around the world, anyone? Classics like All-in Malty Whole Grain, bread with a little twist like All-in Chocolate Delight or world mixes like USA Bagels or Scandinavian Frøbrød. The delicious smell of freshly baked bread will put a smile on your and your children’s face in an instant. Just like bread and butter.

Day 2: Organize a picknick
A glimmering ray of sunshine through the clouds? Grab a blanket, collect some delicacies, like some fruit, chocolate, delicious beverages and some snack sausages. Don’t forget the bread you home-baked yesterday! Rain forecast? No need to worry and just make it an indoor picknick. Set up your blanket in the living room and enjoy an indoor picknick on the living floor.

Day 3: Release your inner chef
Classics like pizzas, cupcakes, pancakes, waffles, hotdogs or stepping up your game with some puff pastry-sticks or meatloaf. Why not enjoy some cooking time together? Mixing business with pleasure: time flies and dinner is served! Two for the price of one. Put on your apron, pick a recipe and get started to release your inner chef. A guaranteed recipe for success! And maybe you’ll discover the next Gordon Ramsay to be living under your roof?

Day 4: Rent a van
In need of a vital change of scenery after being at home for three days straight with the children? Rent a van and travel across the country. From the seaside to the Ardennes, a van will allow you to revisit some classic hotspots for guaranteed fun (did someone say Belgian coast) as well as some hidden gems. End the day with a cozy bonfire with some marshmallows and you have everything you need for a successful camping trip.

Day 5: Go for a walk
While at the seaside or in the Ardennes, or just at home, go discover the neighborhood. Unknown often means unloved. Put on your raincoat, get your umbrella, put on your boots. Singing in the rain anyone?
