It's already Autumn and school holidays are creeping up again (seriously, how did that happen so fast?!). If you’re already wondering how to keep the kids entertained, you can rest easy knowing I'll have you covered. Me and the Tot team have been working hard to put together a massive list of events, ideas and activities for April and the school holidays—from mini golf experiences, glamping spots and Easter events, it's a roundup that will definitely be worth bookmarking.
Stay tuned, but for now, I hope this newsletter makes planning your next family adventure feel like a breeze.
