Let\u2019s face it, we\u2019re all big kids at heart, and that\u2019s because it\u2019s way more fun being a kid (minus the copious drinking and staying out for as long as we like). <\/span><\/p>\n

Call us immature but we\u2019d much rather get stuck in to a game of bubble football than sit at a posh dinner table with real \u2018grown ups\u2019, talking about interest rates, wine and relationships – because the best relationships involve mucking about with your mates! <\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s why we\u2019ve put together a list of fun, exciting and totally childish things we\u2019d unashamedly love to do in Leeds.<\/span><\/p>\n

As well as laser tag, Hazlewood Castle also offer body zorbing – probably the single-coolest thing anybody has thought of doing with plastic.<\/span><\/p>\n

When the weather is warm and sunny as it has been recently, few things are more appealing than getting wet and wild in the surf.<\/span><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the coast is about 58 miles in every direction. Fortunately, Leeds Sailing and Activity Centre offers a whole host of exciting water activities including sailing, canoeing and power-boating.<\/span><\/p>\n

Paintball – Delta Force<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

One of the most exciting activity centres in Leeds, Delta Force offers paintball matches with you and your friends across an assortment of zones; such as a Tomb Raider themed environment and an area that resembles a post-apocalyptic London.
