What age is this Platinum Jubilee Activity Pack suitable for?
Our age recommendation for this pack is approximately 7-14 years. However, we always say that ability is very subjective; what will be right for one child won’t necessarily be right for another of the same age.
The pack has been designed so it can be enjoyed as a family, with activities and games that can be done together or independently. The tasks can be completed to your child’s own level, with support from you or an older sibling as necessary.
For example, A 13 year old may produce a complex response to a Lego challenge, independently solve numeracy puzzles, really go to town on the design tasks and take their self-led projects and science investigations to a much deeper level than a younger child. It is important to remember that our activity packs are not meant to mirror what a child has been doing in school, but are instead meant to engage them, spark their love of learning and most of all be FUN. Our own children (aged 5-12) have loved testing out these activities.
