FOR ALL AGES
At Kidadl we pride ourselves on offering families original ideas to make the most of time spent together at home or out and about, wherever you are in the world. We strive to recommend the very best things that are suggested by our community and are things we would do ourselves - our aim is to be the trusted friend to parents.
We try our very best, but cannot guarantee perfection. We will always aim to give you accurate information at the date of publication - however, information does change, so it’s important you do your own research, double-check and make the decision that is right for your family.
Kidadl provides inspiration to entertain and educate your children. We recognise that not all activities and ideas are appropriate and suitable for all children and families or in all circumstances. Our recommended activities are based on age but these are a guide. We recommend that these ideas are used as inspiration, that ideas are undertaken with appropriate adult supervision, and that each adult uses their own discretion and knowledge of their children to consider the safety and suitability.
Kidadl cannot accept liability for the execution of these ideas, and parental supervision is advised at all times, as safety is paramount. Anyone using the information provided by Kidadl does so at their own risk and we can not accept liability if things go wrong.

If you know or see a tubist, appreciate them from the bottom of your heart.

Read about the life of reputable musicians who play tuba like Øystein Baadsvik, Roger Bobo, and John Fletcher and listen to the instrument's beautiful sound.
International Tuba Day is about paying respect to the work of tuba players and giving them recognition. When you do so, they not only feel good about themselves and their art but are inspired to participate in orchestras and marching bands more frequently.
World Music Day (June 21), National DJ Day (January 20), National Ukulele Day (February 2), and Marching Music Day (March 4).
While tuba players celebrate the day by blowing into their instruments and producing lovely music, non-tuba players support and encourage them.
