The best things to do in Leeds with kids
"One of the largest parks in Europe, Roundhay Park – not far from the city centre – stretches over a whopping 700 acres. With lakes and woodland in the park, as well as activities galore and some open-air theatre in summer, you can also visit Tropical World, the largest collection of tropical plants outside Kew Gardens. There are also a string of walking routes, including past the castle ruins and around the lake, and several play areas to entertain younger kids."

The Ultimate Guide to Family-friendly Dining in Leeds City Centre
"Get a serious dose of Italian family hospitality at Bibis Italianissimo, the Leeds restaurant where children are treated like royalty. All the classics are offered on their special Bambini menu, from pizzas to bolognese, and they all come in at under £5. The art deco-style dining room gives the experience a hint of glitz and glamour, but this is a lively joint so you needn’t worry about your airs and graces."
