Not far from London - in Milton Keynes - is the Airkix Windtunnel Xscape Centre. A day being blasted around in a windtunnel to get the sensation of free falling out of a plane is fabulous for kids - and for adults too who might be a bit scared of the real thing. You get training first, then get kitted out to face the 150mph winds. And it isn't nearly as pricey as the full jump from a plane thing.
