Outside of activity camps try Reading Steady Go!

Until kids can get back to activity camps they can be kept entertained at a historical exhibition in Reading.


Reading Steady Go! looks at how youth culture exploded in the 1960s and how it still has an impact on fashion and music today.

The event, which is being held at Reading Museum & Town Hall, will let youngsters find out more about how the town left the post war years and produced Baby Boomers, who had more free time and money to spend than ever before.

In this era, young adults were called teenagers for the first time and there were a fair few styles sported by teens, such as rockabilly, teddy boy, mod and beatnik.

Your kids may even get some fashion inspiration!

After this, summer activities for children could include clothes shopping in Reading town centre.

Here, you'll find Broad Street Mall and The Oracle, two large shopping centres where you can while the afternoon away.
