Children’s Day in Turkey – the perfect excuse to book a family holiday

Why not treat the kids to a holiday to Turkey to mark International Children’s Day.

This national day (23 April National Sovereignty and Children’s Day) in Turkey is a unique event.  Schools across Turkey participate in week-long fun filled ceremonies marked by performances in all fields in large stadiums watched by the entire nation.

The founder of the Turkish Republic, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, dedicated April 23 to the children of the country to emphasize that they are the future of the new nation.

It was on April 23, 1920, during the War of Independence, that the Grand National Assembly met in Ankara and laid down the foundations of a new, independent, secular, and modern republic from the ashes of the Ottoman Empire.

Every year, the children in Turkey celebrate this “Sovereignty and Children’s Day” as a national holiday filled with days of fun, fun and more fun.

Children's Day in Turkey

Family Holiday on a Budget

Hi, Where do you take your family & young children on Holiday? You need a great place to stay that gives you beautiful beaches, great day trips and suites your budget.

Here’s our top 3 Credit Crunch Cures:-

1) Altinkum, Turkey
It’s Cheap and has 3 lovely sandy beaches that aren’t overcrowded (depends which season you go, july/august is busiest) It has many bars and restaurants, but still safe enough for a family. There is only one main large nightclub, so it’s not really a ‘party scene’.

You can also get a mini bus to Kuşadası, where there is the largest water park in Europe, adaland (entry is 20 euros, but free for children under 7 and for children under 12 there is a discount). There’s also several places in Altinkum which organise trips to other places, I highly recommend Ephesus and Pamukkale!

2) Ovacik/Hisaronu
The beautiful valley of Ovacik which is very peaceful and relaxing during the day. There are breathtaking views of Babadag and Mendos mountains .You can enjoy watching the sun rise and set each day.

In the small village of Ovacik, there are many Family bars, restaurants and shops.
You can jump on a dolmus to either Fethiye or Olu Deniz (famous Blue Lagoon) which is only a ten minute journey away. A short walk (12-15) mins will take you to the busy village of Hisaronu where you will find an abundance of restaurants, bars and shops. A new shopping complex was opened in 2007 and has 2 supermarkets, restaurants and shops. There is also a small theme park which is great for the kids.

3) Marmaris, Turkey. It’s got lovely scenery, great food, friendly, plenty of night life if you want it. Marmarise has lots of shops & markets, and it is very cheap because Turkey is not in the EU.

The beaches are so nice, especially near by icmeler. They have boat trips, diving trips, jeep safaris, waterparks, lazy day cruises, turkish baths, day trips to Rhodes, You can also visit places of interest, e.g. natural mud baths, Dalyan, turtle beach, The kings tombs on the cliff face, trips to Ephesus, Pamukkale, visit traditional turkish villages, go to turkish nights, watch turkish dancing, belly dancing, break dancing etc

It’s nice & flat so it’s good for all ages or people with buggies or in wheelchairs. The weather is lovely & it’s very clean and most importantly, very cheap :)
