The summer holidays are here! But with them often comes the dreaded question: “What are we doing today?” That’s why we’ve created something fun, flexible, and completely free – the 20-Day Children’s Creative Summer Challenge. Running Monday to Friday for 4 weeks.
Whether you’re working, planning family days out, or simply hoping to reduce screen time, this challenge is packed with screen-free activities that kids love. It’s a brilliant way to keep children engaged, inspired, and proud of what they make – and best of all, there’s no pressure to do it perfectly.
What Is the Children’s Creative Summer Challenge?
For 20 exciting days, we’ll be sharing daily creative challenges for children to try at home. Each morning, you’ll find a short, cheerful video on our social media pages. These videos are designed to spark imagination and give children a starting point. They’re not step-by-step tutorials – because we want to see what they come up with!
Even if your child chooses a completely different take on the idea, that’s wonderful. Every child can explore the challenges in their own unique way – and that’s exactly what we love to see.
Why Families Love This Challenge
Because the activities are open-ended and accessible, you can join in every day or just pick your favourites. Here’s what makes it such a hit:
Screen-free fun – These creative prompts help children switch off screens and switch on their imagination.
Creative activities kids love – From painted rocks to junk model robots, there’s something for every interest.
No pressure – Children can go at their own pace and express themselves freely.
A chance to win a £100 craft hamper – Simply share your child’s creation in the comments to enter.
A downloadable certificate – Complete all 20 challenges and print a certificate to celebrate their creativity!
