February brings romance and pancakes, offering perfect opportunities to spend quality time with loved ones. With half-term just around the corner, it's the ideal moment to explore the exciting activities and events that will keep your little ones entertained during the break.
As winter is in full swing, remember to bundle up for outdoor trips, as the weather is frosty and fresh. Indoor activities might be necessary, and Poole has plenty to offer for the whole family. Visit the Dolphin Centre for some shopping and treat yourself to a well-deserved cup of coffee and a slice of cake.
Poole boasts an excellent choice of eateries and enjoyable activities for everyone. If you prefer the outdoors, Poole Park awaits with scenic strolls and a round of crazy golf. Upton Country Park is a lovely location for a family day out – let the little ones enjoy Spurrier’s play park, then visit the tea rooms and admire the walled gardens. Pancake Day is always a hit, but if flipping pancakes at home isn't your thing, a variety of cafés and restaurants serve pancakes and more!
With a rolling calendar of events, family-friendly activities, exhibitions, concerts, markets, and theatre in Poole, you’ll never be stuck for activities for all.
