  • Flower crown or jewellery-making workshops
  • High tea or brunch at a nice venue
  • Paint and sip (with mocktails or tea instead of alcohol)
  • DIY spa or pamper day
  • Dance or yoga class
  • Outdoor adventures like a scavenger hunt, beach picnic or nature walk
  • Cooking or baking classes

It really depends on your group’s vibe – there are so many options that don’t revolve around drinking but still make for a great day out!
