A Day Out at Halloween at Cammas Hall

Cammas Hall is a local pick-your-own farm that we tend to go to every single year. We’ve done a lot of strawberry picking and have gone every year to their Halloween event, but this year it feels bigger than ever. Cammas Hall has a giant corn maze, a spooky child friendly walk, a teen-aimed spooky walk, a pumpkin volcano, massive pumpkin patch and actors around photo areas! It seems to keep growing each year, getting to be quite a big event. You will need to pre-book and pay an entrance fee to go into the spooky walk and pumpkin patch. The corn maze is a priced add on.

A Day Out at Waffles & More

Waffles & More have opened up a branch in Harlow, and Dann really wanted to go there for his birthday! Not for the waffles and sweet treats, but for the “more”. You see, Waffles & More have a big sign outside about their upstairs arcade. On the first day they opened, Dann went up there and had a little sneak peak, and since has been trying to get someone, anyone to have a birthday party in their arcade.

Best Free Play Parks in Essex

When the weather is looking good, you often want to go out and enjoy it! We are a bit adventure family at the Hadley-Sullivan household, so we have gone to so many different parks, splash parks, and outdoor areas all year around, to explore what they have to offer. Since we have been to so many places over the years, we decided to put together a bunch of the best free play parks in Essex to visit with your children, to better make use of the summer holiday and sunshine! There are a few play park-adjacent places in this list, but they go well with the getting outdoor and playing activities!

A Day Out at Horrible Histories – Barmy Britain at Harlow Playhouse

We have very nearly seen every single Horrible Histories play. With just two left, when Horrible Histories – Barmy Britain was shown as playing locally, there was no way that we couldn’t attend! We’ve actually never been to the Harlow Playhouse before, as a family, and decided to invite along one of Kai’s friends. Since Kai’s friend was with us, he was pretty busy hanging out, and we didn’t end up getting a family photo – but that’s okay, as we did enjoy the performance so much – as did his mate.
