1. Trampoline session, booked early

An hour of jumping does more than three hours of anything else. Book the first session of the day and you will beat both the crowds and the afternoon meltdown.

2. A large indoor playground

Pick one with a separate toddler zone if your children are more than three years apart. Weekday mornings are quietest.
