Fun, educational activities to keep you entertained this summer!

Family Health

To help keep everyone entertained this summer, the Consumer Council has designed a range of free games, quizzes and activities for all to get involved with.

You’ll be learning about scams and consumer rights alongside our mascot, Peanut the Squirrel. Activities include snakes and ladders, snap, charades, pairs and colouring sheets. Who said learning couldn’t be fun? They’ve been designed to have a learning element too, so you may learn something new yourself!

In addition, you may even win a prize! The Consumer Council is asking you to tag it in photos of you playing these activities on Twitter or on Facebook to be in with a chance to win a £25 Love2Shop voucher.

The activities are available to download from www.consumercouncil.org.uk/activities/summer.

The fun doesn’t stop there, the Consumer Council also has a range of other educational activities focusing on consumer rights, avoiding scams and budgeting on its dedicated activities web page: www.consumercouncil.org.uk/activities.
