here goes, in glasgow you have the kelvingrove art gallery with sections for the kids,across the road you have the transport museum (both free as are all museums in glasgow) both next to kelvingrove park. acroos the water you have the glasgow science centre, in pollokshaws you have the burrell collection in pollok park, on great western road you have the botanic gardens, in the city centre you have the gallery of modern art with projects fo the kids, in the east end you have the peoples palace( my fav) in glasgow green with lots of play parks that are safe for tots. lots of things to do for little or no money.

- the transport museum i loved that place as a kid
- science museum
- imax cinema
- blackshaw farm (not sure if its still running though went in p3 and loved it!!....oh so long ago!!)
- haggs castle in pollokshields
- pollok park to see the highland coos

the answers above are excellent but consist of a lot of museums where you kids will get bored try swimming, m&d's. palicerigg country park cumbernauld has a small animal farm or google glasgow council they have a brochure of whats on during the holidays. have fun

Take them a day trip somewhere (bus or train) pack a lunch find a park and let them run around and have some fun, weather permitting of course. There is lots to see and do our there

why don't you take them on a day trip? that way everybody can enjoy themselves and it doesn't seem like such hard work

I hear Easterhouse is quite charming and welcoming, maybe.
