Out & About with Kids editor Angela Saurine and her son, Oliver
Welcome to our June issue, which is full of great ideas for ways you and your family can get out and about this winter! Word of mouth tells us Cairns is going to be VERY busy in the upcoming school holidays, so we’re sure readers will love discovering Tourism Tropical North Queensland CEO Mark Olsen’s insider tips. We also know the cooler months are when whales come out to play along Australia’s east coast, but who knew the Gold Coast was such an awesome spot to witness the spectacle? Check out our story to find out why. One of our favourite people, Meg Law, also tackles the super fun new Kids Vs Wild Bear Grylls Academy experience at NRMA Parks and Resorts with her hubby and kids. We just love the way this family always get so into everything, even going so far as eating worms on this trip! I also share the top things to see and do and where to stay and eat in our beautiful Harbour City, Sydney. With international travel back on the cards, we also reveal the best resorts for families in perennial favourite Bali, and the wildest roller coasters around the world.
