Looking for affordable ways to amuse the kids over the school holidays?
Here are a few ideas:
Larrikin Puppets
Somewhere between Sesame Street and The Muppets, you’ll find Larrikin Puppets!
The zany characters at Larrikin Puppets will perform their exciting show at Morayfield Sport and Events Centre on Tuesday, 15 April.
Children are encouraged to talk, play, sing and dance along with catchy tunes that celebrate fun, kindness and diversity. The show starts at 10am.
Tickets are $5 (under two’s are free!). Book your tickets here.
School Holiday Wildlife Show
For kids who love animals and reptiles, you can’t go past the MSEC School Holiday Wildlife Show.
Get up close and personal with some of Australia’s most iconic creatures such as koalas, kangaroos, possums, lizards, snakes and even a baby crocodile at Morayfield Sport and Events Centre on Wednesday, 16 April.
Educational as well as fun, trained handlers will show you how to interact with the animals in a safe and respectful way. The show starts at 10am.
Tickets are $5 (under two’s are free!). Get your tickets here.
The Bunny Hop
Let the kids burn off some energy while having a blast at The Bunny Hop!
Featuring a balloon twister and a DJ to get the kids dancing, the Easter Kids Disco is at Morayfield Tavern on Thursday, 17 April.
The disco goes from 5.30pm to 7.30pm. Admission to the disco is FREE for diners, but bookings are recommended as it’s Parmy Night and gets busy!
Don’t forget your local libraries for special school holiday events for various ages!
At Burpengary Library, it’s free to make a plushie, play with a guinea pig, conduct experiments with slime, learn how to use a Cricut machine, meet a koala and more.
Local Library Events
You might even transform your library into a Sphero Maze and put your robot driving skills to the test!
Caboolture Library offers activities like creating clay monsters, patting a guinea pig, teen podcasting, meeting a koala and learning about wildlife, as well as making a framed desk accessory with a Cricut machine.
Events are FREE but bookings are required as places are limited.
Go to Moreton Bay Region Libraries website for dates and details.
There’s no excuse for kids to be bored – get them off the screens and engage their minds and bodies with some of these fun activities!
