In Scotland experiences cover Dumfries and Galloway, Edinburgh, the Cairngorms and the Isle of Lewis and the Outer Hebrides, with everything from forest adventure activities to dolphins, whales and basking sharks on offer. There is a longing amongst parents to take their children on UK holidays that are nourishing for the soul, that take children out of the digital world, slow down and appreciate nature, culture, arts, history, food and fellow human beings. This may be a 'slow' guide but it lacks nothing in excitement!

Why do people find smoking breaks okay, but not prayer breaks?
People may find smoking breaks more acceptable than prayer breaks because smoking is often seen as a personal choice and a way to relieve stress, while prayer is seen as a religious practice. Additionally, smoking breaks are often seen as a social activity and a way to take a break from work, while prayer breaks may be seen as interrupting productivity. There may also be a lack of understanding or awareness about the importance of prayer to individuals of certain faiths, leading to a lack of acceptance for prayer breaks in the workplace.

These items are often made of brittle materials that are prone to shattering or cracking when mishandled. Additionally, items with thin or weak structures are also more likely to break easily, as they lack the necessary strength to withstand external forces.
