Every session starts with training and you fly one on one with a certified instructor holding you steady. With 40 plus US locations it is one of the easiest big thrills to book near home.

Why it works for a dad and child

You both step into the same glass chamber and learn the same brand new skill, which is rare for a parent and a young kid. Watching each other fly is the whole memory.

ACE Adventure Resort, Upper New River Rafting

Oak Hill, West Virginia, USA

ACE runs family rafting on the Upper New River Gorge, gentle enough for kids as young as six yet with real splashy rapids. You paddle together as a crew with a trained guide steering, and there is time to swim and float in the warm calm stretches. The resort sits right on the gorge with lodging, so a day trip can stretch into a weekend.

Dandelion Chocolate, Make Your Own Bar

San Francisco, California, USA

Dandelion is a respected bean to bar maker in the Mission District whose chocolate is just two ingredients, cocoa and sugar. Their hands on sessions let you and your child mould, flavour and wrap your own bar, or roll truffles together, in a working factory full of the smell of roasting cocoa. Classes are booked online and several are made for families.

You clip into a continuous safety line and work your way up through harder sections at your own pace. Locations sit in forests across many US states, from Virginia to Kansas City.
