Ever wanted to tell your family to GET LOST? Well, now you can – in the best way possible! Kids In Adelaide were recently gifted the game GETTING LOST to try and we are here to tell you, it is a HEAP of fun and a great way to explore your own suburb or somewhere completely new!
It really is simple – you pick your pack depending on the type of adventure you want. There are heaps to choose from, including a cycling edition, girls road trip, Aussie edition, summer edition, even a wellbeing pack! Then jump in the car (or on your bike, on the footpath, etc etc!), appoint someone as the official card reader and start turning over the cards (aptly named ‘misdirection cards!’) to see where you need to go or what you need to do!
So what type of instructions can you expect? When we played, we had cards such as “drive to a house you used to live in, or an old workplace”, “stop for a treat”, “have a play on the nearest playground”, “follow a blue car” and “hang a right at the next servo”. The kids were delighted with all of the fun activities they go to do along the way and we found ourselves down some streets we’d never even noticed in our own neighbourhood before! Between all of the different packs there is quite literally hundreds of directions and activities so you’ll never get sick of it. Plus the cards and packs are designed to be played anywhere in the world so once you’ve explored close to home, pop them in your suitcase for your next holiday and explore a whole other place!
GETTING LOST is perfect to take on holiday or play on a weekend or during school holidays to fill a day that would otherwise be spent in front of the TV. If you aren’t sure which pack is right for you, you can do the handy quiz on the GETTING LOST website. This is also great for working out which pack to get as gifts (perfect Secret Santa pressie!).
We will definitely be adding to our GETTING LOST collection – we are totally hooked now plus the kids keep asking when we can play again!
You can grab GETTING LOST from their website or follow them on Facebook or Instagram.

As we all know, teens and tweens are in that tough spot of wanting to grow up and be adults but also (sometimes secretly) wanting to embrace what is left of their childhood. It can be hard finding activities that they actually WANT to do and aren't too cool for, right?! When you're looking for activities to do with your tweens and teens, you probably want to make sure they tick three key boxes: They aren't too expensive (so they can bring a friend perhaps) Keep them mentally or physically active (so you can avoid the dreaded, "I'm bored. This sucks.") Something that is supervised, but where you could still allow them their "independence" while keeping an eye on them! So here are ten of the best for your kids to enjoy in Adelaide… Bounce, Marleston and Greenacres Bazinga Trading Cards, Collectibles & Arcade Treeclimb, Adelaide or Kuipto Forest Cirkidz classes Woodhouse Adventure Park Escape Hunt AFL Max Adelaide 36ers Home Games Hanging out at Glenelg Shanx Mini Golf Read on to find out why we love all of these spots for our independence loving teens and tweens!

Toddlers are busy, toddlers are fun, when they throw a tantrum you’ll just want to run! Toddlers can be hard work, but can also be SO MUCH fun. Give them the right space and it’s so entertaining (and also very important) to just let them free and watch them learn, experience, climb, run, fall, work out and try again. Finding that safe space can be tricky though and a fully fenced playground, shallow spot for a splash on a hot day, a cafe with a great play corner or a venue that caters for toddler needs is like finding gold in them thar hills. Here’s our top 10 ways to keep your toddlers happy, entertained and having fun in Adelaide

It's no secret that we have some serious talent right here in South Australia. We have strong, inspirational business leaders across all industries - but what might surprise you (or maybe not?) is the level of up and coming talent right here in Adelaide. That's right - "Kidpreneurs" are on the rise here in Adelaide. Youngsters that have started their own business and are absolutely smashing it. Some have seen a gap in the market, some have taken a hobby or interest and turned it into a profitable business and some are doing what they can to raise money and support causes close to their heart. We all know supporting local businesses is SO important, but how about supporting local AND supporting the next generation? We feel good knowing the South Australian economy will one day in the hands of these superstars!
