Welcome to Children´s Bristol – the local website for Bristol families
Updated: 10 December 2007
Welcome to the Children´s Bristol website – the internet companion to Bristol´s most popular and useful family guide.
If you're looking for ideas for family days out or activities for children in and around Bristol visit our things to do page; it's regularly updated and is packed with ideas.
We published Children's Bristol 30 years ago and since then getting on for 100,000 mums and dads, grandparents and children themselves have turned to it for inspiration and information. The book has now been completely updated and is bigger, better and even more useful than before. It is the most complete guide to children's activities and family fun in Bristol.
The opening chapters are scene–setters, outlining Bristol´s fascinating history and its great maritime heritage. There follow chapters on things to do, bright ideas for outings, children´s parties, family walks in Bristol and surrounding area, children's attractions and places to visit in Bristol and the West up to a radius of about 40 miles, eating out in Bristol with children. There are speciality chapters on animals and birds, historic places, museums, caves and even where to look for ghosts.
Children´s Bristol is informative, educational, interesting – but above all, great fun! ** BUY NOW **
Alongside the book, the Children´s Bristol website keeps you posted on new things to do and our comprehensive listing of forthcoming events is updated regularly. Visit our Things to do page to find out what's on.
