As schools break for half-term, parents will be wondering what to do with the kids this week.

Pupils in Hertfordshire have the week off from February 19 to 23, which may be daunting especially with rain forecast on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday.

But don't worry, we've rounded-up 10 fun events for children and parents alike in Watford this week.

Atria Silent Disco

Atria is organising a silent disco for your little ones from 11am to 4pm daily, starting Monday February 19.

Head to the ‘Happy House’ in Charter Place to let them get some energy out and dance the day away.

There are headphones for the children to wear, as well as funky glasses and fun props for them to play with.

Wizards of Watford Treasure Hunt

Why not take a trip around town with the self-guided Wizards of Watford Treasure Hunt?

The adventure trail will take you on a two mile walk around town’s main streets and alleyways with directions to guide you and an entertaining backstory. 

The tour is available to download and print immediately from the Treasure Trails website, and is aimed at ages seven to 11, but kids as young as four can get involved.

Puttshack

This high-tech mini-golf venue on the ground floor of atria Watford is a hit with all of the ages.

Visitors can enjoy a range of crazy interactive courses with shots recorded electronically and even prizes up for grabs on certain holes.

Watford Observer: Children are welcome, although the venue becomes strictly over-18 after 9pm.

Escape Rooms

Escape Hunt, at the atria, has six options for adventures which are all appropriate for children ages eight upwards, including a samurai-themed story and 'The Curse of the Pharaoh'.

While in 'The Chapel', your team must enter an abandoned chapel and cleanse its evil presence, which is only suitable for children aged 12+.

Boom Battle Bar

Sometimes parents need a rest as much as their kids, so the Boom Battle Bar at atria is a great place to let off some steam this week.

The games bar has recently added ‘BOOM BOX Karaoke’ to its roster of activities, which also includes axe-throwing, shuffleboard, augmented reality darts, beer pong and American pool.

The soft-play area is appropriated named as it means parents will get some well-earned rest this week as their kids enjoy themselves in a safe environment.
