π Imagine a world where kids planned family holidays β it might just be as close to paradise as it gets! A fresh survey of 1,000 children aged 6 to 12 reveals their dream getaway plans and trust us, itβs packed with endless fun and laughter. π΄ββοΈπ


If it were up to them, dessert would be served before dinner, treasure hunts would become a daily adventure, and giant water fights would be a must-have on their itinerary. π¦π¦ The young dreamers also envision days filled with riding bikes or scooters, playing hide and seek, and a nightcap of board games with family. A massive 93% of the kids have their hearts set on holiday parks, loving the variety of activities they offer. ποΈπ²

Here’s the twist: Sykes Holiday Cottages is on the hunt for two lucky kids to become their official ‘Directors of Fun’, giving them the chance to dive into holiday planning! The fun-loving role invites spontaneous, imaginative, and enthusiastic children to share their dream holiday itineraries for a chance to win a holiday role like no other. π
James Shaw, from the staycation experts, explains it best: “While ice creams and activities bring excitement, what truly stands out is their love for family time.” More than half of the kids polled said the best part of any holiday is the time spent with family, and over a third love making new friends. π¨βπ©βπ§βπ¦π
Entries for this one-of-a-kind opportunity are open until 30th April 2026. It’s a chance to let your child’s imagination run wild and have a say in what a fantastic family vacay could be like. ποΈβ¨
