Practical information
At Vakantiekids we have a variety of fun activities for children aged 4 to 12 years old during the summer holidays. Because we regularly receive the same questions from parents, we have collected them below to provide you with quick answers.
Entrance fees
Entrance fees 2024:
€0.50 cents per half day.
A whole day including lunch is €1.50. You can pay cash or with a tikkie at the cash register.
Opening hours
The morning part of the day starts at 09:30 and runs until 12:00. After a nice lunch break we continue with the afternoon part of the day from 13:00 to 15:30.
Registration is possible half an hour before the start, so from 9:00 am and from 12:30 pm.
To enrol
Registration is possible at the cash register from half an hour before the start of each part of the day. We strive to start on time and would appreciate it if you or your child could also be on time! It is important to allow sufficient time for the registration process, so that everything can run smoothly and we can offer everyone a warm welcome.
After payment, your child will receive a colored wristband, so that we can quickly see which children are registered and which are not. We also mention any allergies and dietary requirements on this.
Lunch
The children who are with us in the morning or during the whole day can choose to have lunch with us. We provide a healthy sandwich and occasionally a special treat. In addition, we also hand out some fruit every now and then.
They can also drink unlimited lemonade or water throughout the day. If your child has specific dietary requirements, avoids certain foods for religious reasons, or has allergies, please let us know when registering. We will take this into account.
Lunch costs
Because local entrepreneurs sponsor a large part of our lunch, we can offer it for only €0.50.
The condition is that your child comes to play during the morning. This way we can take the purchase into account.
Location
To make the registration as smooth as possible, we prefer to travel by bike, public transport or on foot. It is allowed to park temporarily at our Kiss&Ride, but we kindly ask you to leave the Kiss&Ride with your car as soon as possible after registering. This way, space is made for other cars and we prevent traffic jams.
The address of our location is Achterhoekseweg 9. To take the best route, set your car navigation to cycle routes. From the Europalaan you can drive onto the cycle path and continue onto the Achterhoekseweg.
Lost and found
Next to the cash register there is a bin for lost and found items during the Ziza Summer Festival. Everything we find will be put in this bin. After the festival, lost and found items will be kept for a while, but eventually we will clean up all found items.
Safety
The ZiZa Summer Festival is held on a closed terrain, where the terrain can only be left via the ticket office. Leaving the terrain is at your own risk, so make sure to arrange with your child whether they can go home themselves, or whether they will be picked up.
Contact details
We ask you to ensure that your child always has contact information with us so that we can reach you or another caregiver. This way we can reach you if your child becomes ill or wants to go home. Your child can contact the organization to make the call.
Bad weather
In case of bad weather, we have enough space inside to do fun activities, such as watching movies, playing board games, crafting and much more! And let's be honest, it's also quite fun to jump in the puddles outside, right? So, put on your wellies and come join the fun!
Extremely hot weather
The ZiZa Summer Festival will take place in principle in all weather conditions. First of all, make sure your child is covered in sunscreen (we also have sunscreen available). Don't forget to bring swimming gear, as there is a great chance that we will adjust the program and play with water. Of course, we will announce this in advance on our socials.
Sign
Since our site is located in a wooded area, it is wise to check your child for ticks every evening. Has your child been bitten by a tick and does he/she show a red ring (erythema migrans) on the skin or has he/she developed a fever after a tick bite? Please report this on www.tekenradar.nl. Via this website you can contribute to national research into tick bites and Lyme disease.
Discover our fun-packed summer program!
At Vakantiekids every day is a splashing party! Our program is bursting with adventure, creativity and fun, so that children will experience a holiday they will never forget.
What does our program entail?
Our program consists of a varied mix of sports activities, creative craft sessions, fun games and fascinating workshops. From exciting treasure hunts to refreshing water fun and from sparkling talent shows to a bouncy castle festival, there is something for everyone.
How do we ensure the safety of the children?
At Vakantiekids, safety comes first. Our volunteers are experienced in dealing with children and organizing activities. In addition, there is constant adult supervision, creating a safe environment in which children can play and discover freely.
When does it take place?
Our activities cover the last 2 weeks of the summer holidays, from August 19th to 29th.
Each day consists of 2 half days and a lunch.
Are parents welcome to participate in the activities?
The activities are aimed at children aged 4 to 12. Parents cannot participate in the activities with their children, but can assist and supervise as volunteers.
Can I help out and become a volunteer?
Vakantiekids is mainly supported by volunteers. We are constantly looking for enthusiastic people who want to take on the challenge of creating a great summer holiday experience for all children. In addition, your children can participate for free on the day that you come to support us. If this appeals to you, and you are available for a day or more at the end of August, please send an e-mail to volunteers@vakantiekidshengelo.nl
