The schools are closed and you’ve got to
keep the kids occupied, while still finding some quality time for yourself. Here’s how....
Escape...to a beach — anywhere! What’s summer without a sojourn
to pearly white sands and blue waters? We recommend Maldives, Sri Lanka,
Mauritius or Seychelles. If you like your beach to have a party buzz, head to
Thailand. Life will be a beach, you betcha.
Learn... a new language this summer at
Alliance Française. With their intensive four-week
course starting this August, you will be speaking
fluent French in no time. May we suggest a trip to
Paris to test your newly-learned knowledge after
you finish the course?

Seek... tranquillity at an unlikely
location — Bahrain City Centre. It might not
look like a Mecca of peace to you, but you will
realise what we mean after you drop off your
kids at Wahooo! and head out for a hassle-free
and reviving bout of shopping. [Ramadan
timings for Wahooo! will be 5pm to 10pm.]
Visit... the upgraded Al Areen Wildlife
Park and Reserve and introduce your children
to the wealth of flora and fauna. The park now
houses leopards, foxes, wolves, caracal and
hyena as well as 28 species of birds among
many other birds and animals.
Make... a beautiful craft or pottery piece for yourself. Join classes at
Café Ceramique, Studio Ceramics, Celebrations or L’Aterlier and choose the art
and craft which appeals to you the most. Let the professionals there guide you
and soon you will have a new conversation starter in your home, made by your
own hands! |
