    I have my own leap card and my kids have their own too, we don't often use the bus though and I currently only have one of the kids ones topped up as I usually only have one with me at a time. Can I pay for up to 3 kids on the one childs leapcard?

    Yeah, they'll just print you tickets for the other two kids and charge the card.

    Common enough in summer to take for 30 plus children on one card. Teachers use them for school trips.

    No limit, once there is credit

    Note the below. The under 5 may look to have their own ticket! :)

    Who qualifies for Child Fares?
    Under 5’s:
    One child under 5 years of age can travel free when accompanied by a fare paying adult provided that during busy periods, the child does not occupy a seat to the exclusion of another customer.

    Be aware that if you're making a journey that involves more than one bus, you'll pay more doing it this way as the extra printed tickets won't get the Travel 90 discount.

    Also if you're making multiple journeys in the one day/week, fare capping won't come into play either.
