My 8 year old has taken onto rock and wall climbing lately – and we have been taking her, together with her younger sister to various indoor play areas to climb. It’s exciting for us as parents to explore new places – or at least revisit familiar play areas but to do a different activity altogether.

For our own reference, and yours – here’s a list of places that you can take the kids to – for rock-climbing and wall-climbing. Some of these have high ropes courses as well which is such a fabulous activity to build their confidence!
