Frequently Asked Questions 

Registration is not essential, but you will not have full access all functionality and all attraction info on the site. If you want post to the discussion boards and have unlimited access all the information we have on the thousands of venues and attractions, you will need to register. It's absolutely free and will only take a few seconds. All information you submit is secure and we will only ever let someone contact you if you give us your explicit permission to do so.

Registration also enables us to bring you more relevant information - for example listing attractions close to you, types of attractions you are particularly interested in or special dated events coming up in your area.

If you decide not to register, you can still use the site, search for attractions and read posts in the discussion boards. You will not however be able to submit posts to the discussion boards, be able to access all details of the venues listed, or benefit from getting more tailored information.

We have tried to make registration as quick, simple and painless as possible. Registration requires only five bits of information and should take literally no more than 60 seconds. Click here to register.

Absolutely! Moley and the team love to see what you and your kids think of the child-friendly attractions we have listed on IdeasForTheKids.com. More importantly, so do our users. Reviews provide really useful additional information about the attractions, helping parents decide where to go with the kids. You can post comments, reviews and ratings on any attraction you have visited. Simply visit the attractions page on the site and click on the add review link. You don't even need to be a registered user, though we do ask you to take note of a few simple guidelines. And as a thank you, Moley will enter you into the monthly Prize Draw for each review you submit. Our discussion boards allow you to have even more of a say about specific attractions as well as passing on useful hints and tips.

Absolutely!!! We want the information on IdeasForTheKids.com to be as accurate and up-to-date as possible. With over 10,000 attractions listed, this is no trivial task and we can sometimes get behind on changes to opening times, admission prices, and the latest facilities and attractions. If you do find errors or omissions, please do let us know using the report error link on each page and give us as much information as you can and Moley will check out the info and update the page as quickly as possible.

Sure. If you want some hints and tips on searching, take a look at our search hints and tips page. If you still can't find what you are looking for it may be that for some reason we don't yet have that particular venue listed. Please do let us know using the Submit Attraction form so Moley can investigate and add it to our database.

Moley is a shy, quiet, fun-loving creature who likes nothing better than seeing kids having fun and enjoying themselves. He spends most of his time bustling about finding new places for kids to visit and keeping our huge list of attractions up-to-date. He is so busy that no-one really knows what Moley looks like... but with the help of famous and highly acclaimed animator and caricaturist Picasso Griffiths, we have tried to bring him to life for you. We hope you like him... and all his various incarnations on the site!
