Published by Shore Media, Kids on the Coast and Kids in the City are locally focused print and online magazines, bringing the best in community news, events, features and more to parents throughout our targeted areas – Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast and Brisbane.
Published for over fifteen years, we set ourselves apart through our unique connection to our local market, our dedication to quality content and design, our honest and genuine approach, and our commitment to our community – for whom we exist.
Made by local parents, for local parents, it is our mission to be the first and only place families come to connect – where they are understood, united and inspired. Because of that, we are the most trusted and reliable sources of information for parents throughout our communities.
Shore Media is not just another publishing company but a team of like minded mums and carers who bring the ‘real’ into our magazines. You will find the team often juggling deadlines with children in tow, skyping each other in our pyjamas and sharing crazy animal photos to keep us all laughing in the mayhem. We believe in the simple things, in enjoying family life and appreciating our wonderful corner of the world. We believe that it takes a village to raise a child and that in today’s world, that village is your community.
We believe that parenting can be difficult yet amazing, mundane yet emotional, and we believe that you should never go it alone.
We are passionate about our local community, about local business, about education, about our local environment, and about uniting families across the area. Most importantly, we have integrity in everything we do. To our readers, we are the friend when they need a boost, the diary when they are stuck for something to do, and the high-five when they achieve.
You can find our much-loved free magazine at family hotspots on the Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast and in Brisbane. Or you can also subscribe to receive the latest magazine issue delivered to your door – the small cost is simply to cover the postage.
Don’t forget to sign up to our our weekly ‘What’s On’ eNewsletter, jam-packed with the latest kid-friendly activities, events as well as great reads on parenting, education, family health and wellbeing, arts and crafts, recipes and more!
