This is a lovely idea and is backed up with a voucher online to visit National Trust properties for free on Saturday 21 or Sunday 22 April. I’ve already got my voucher and I know my kids absolutely love getting involved with this kind of thing. Best of all, I know that joining in with the kids will make me feel like a big kid as well.
Kids get rewarded along the way by collecting badges for every 1 of the 50 things they achieve.

National Trust 'bucket list' for children encourages youngsters to go wild
Hunting for bugs, skimming a stone and climbing a tree are among the 50 outdoor activities children should do before they hit 11¾, National Trust claims.
The National Trust list – designed to make youngsters enjoy wildlife more – also includes rolling down a big hill, eating an apple straight from a tree, burying someone in the sand, searching for fossils and bones and calling an owl.
Fewer than one in ten children regularly play in wild places and a third have never even climbed a tree, according to researchers.
The group has formed a team of five Elite Rangers – each skilled in an outdoor activity. They will offer tips on how to enjoy life outdoors at several of the Trust’s properties.
‘Our Elite Rangers are a fantastic bunch, with bags of enthusiasm for the outdoors and what it can offer kids,’ said Tony Berry, a Trust director.
Children can pick up a free ‘50 Things To Do Before You’re 11¾’ scrapbook from participating properties.
