A Summer of Family Fun Outdoors



If, like most people, you are saving those pennies by not going on a holiday abroad this year, it is important that you still make sure you have plenty of activities to keep the kids amused all summer long. While the British summertime is never guaranteed, on days when the sun is shining there are countless of ways that you and the whole family can make the most out of the great outdoors.

 Here’s the TJ Hughes essential guide for keeping the whole family busy and having fun outdoors this summer…

Splash about in the Garden
 
It wouldn’t be summer without a paddling pool in the back garden, and at TJ Hughes we have a huge range of paddling pools and inflatable swimming pools that the whole family can enjoy. With spacious 10ft pools to themed paddling pools – an inflatable pool is the perfect way to soak up the summer sun while enjoying hours of fun splashing about with the family.

Get Active
 
As well as keeping the kids busy with paddling pools, children will also love getting active in the garden with a super fun trampoline set. AT TJ Hughes we have got a great selection of cheap trampolines in a number of different sizes – so you will easily find a trampoline enclosure to fit in gardens both large and small.

Plan a Summer Hike
 
Summer is the best time to make the most of all of the beautiful landscapes littered around the UK. From the breath taking fells in Snowdonia to the bold and beautiful waters of the Lake District, the whole family will enjoy taking in the country’s best scenery on a summer hike. Just make sure you are prepared for the trip with some waterproof outerwear and some quality hiking boots!

A Healthy BBQ Season with George Foreman Grills


Summer is the time of year that we all aim to achieve that bikini body! If you are watching what you eat this season, you will be happy to hear that you can still enjoy the British summer pastime that is the tasty barbeque thanks to the George Foreman Indoor/ Outdoor grill.

George Foreman grills are a guilt-free way of cooking all of your favourite barbequed meals. The George Foreman Indoor or Outdoor Grill or BBQ gives you the chance to cook up everything from succulent chicken kebabs to tasty pork chops – without having to worry too much about the fat content of what you are about to eat!

  The reason why George Foreman grills are so healthy is that they operate from a fat reducing design, in the case of the indoor/outdoor grill or BBQ, this grill features an innovative non-stick grease catcher in the centre of the cooking grate – meaning that grease is removed from the meat as you cook it rather than absorbed into it.

 The outdoor/ indoor grill of BBQ can be presented on a stand when used outdoors – so you still get that complete BBQ experience! The generous size of the George Foreman grill or BBQ can be used to cook up to 13 portions – ideal for those big family BBQs.

Offering exceptional value for money, when BBQ season is over, simply remove the BBQ from the stand to take advantage of using the grill for indoor use all year round.

Keep it healthy and lean with George Foreman electric grills available to buy online at TJ Hughes.
