Children's clubs have been praised for being an excellent way to develop kids' activities for primary and secondary school pupils.
Writing for the Irish Times, Edel Morgan looked at how good kids' clubs are on holiday and asked whether they are more for adults who want a break than for children themselves.
She said while she thought handing her youngsters over to the group for nine hours each day was a little too much, "kids love to hang out with other kids".
Ms Morgan noted that as her children wanted to go to the club without being forced to, they were able to have a good time while she and her husband could enjoy "some guilt-free time relaxing".
Adrienne Curran from Dublin told the news provider that her five-year-old was "dead keen to go and loved going off with the other kids".
