Welcome to the Spring edition of Kids in the City magazine, Brisbane!
Spring is finally here and I, for one, could not be happier. Sure, our winters aren’t exactly Arctic, but let’s be honest — it’s been pretty bloody cold and wet. I’m more than ready for sunshine, bare feet on warm sand, and that unmistakable feeling of everything starting to bloom again.
This issue, we’re brushing off the winter cobwebs and heading out into the community with a spring in our step. For our cover feature, we’ve donned high-vis and hard hats to check out DIG IT mini excavator park — and trust me, it’s the family day out you didn’t know you needed.
Sticking with the mud theme, we’ve also got the lowdown on what’s in store when the epic Spartan Moreton Bay lands in SEQ this October (page 34). This one’s going to be huge, and yes, we can’t wait to give it a go ourselves.
In our education feature, we shine a light on a remarkable early learning centre in Ashmore that’s building a true community village around every child in its care. We also sit down with psychologist and play therapist Kristen Whittingham, founder of Play Plus Therapy, to explore the life-changing impact of play therapy on vulnerable children.
Coding expert Richard Colson, Director at STEM academy Skill Samurai, joins us to chat about fun and practical ways to get kids started with coding — and why this skill is becoming one of the most important foundations for their future in today’s fast-changing world. And if you’re dreaming of a getaway, travel expert Amy Gratton from Sonia Jones Travel is here with her hot picks for the best family travel spots right now — plus how to plan a holiday without losing your mind (or your luggage).
And of course, you’ll also find all our regular news, reviews, recipes, kid-friendly events and more — all bundled into a bumper spring edition made to inspire and entertain.
Here’s to sunnier days, family adventures, and plenty of reasons to get out and about this spring.
See you out there!
