29 Ways to Adventure With Kids Without Leaving Town

When you have children (and even when you don’t), traveling somewhere new isn’t always possible and it’s easy to find yourself feeling “stuck” doing the same things with your children again and again. Finding new adventures or activities in your hometown isn’t always easy, but if you start looking, I promise you will begin to look at your own city in a brand new way.

"Life was meant for good friends and great adventures"

A few friends had been asking us to join them for a day at Goat Island Marine Reserve and when we found out it was a site for the Toyota Kiwi Guardian Programme, the kids couldn't wait for the adventure and chance to earn a medal. We printed maps and the boys decided what parts they would explore: the older boys swam out to the seaweed forest and all the way to the island to check out the colourful caves and the younger boys took snorkeled along the reef and went tide pooling on the rocky shore. Everyone found and saw new things, learning about different sea creatures and overcoming fears (like swimming with giant stingrays) along the way. This was our adventure with Kiwi Guardian Programme...what will yours be?  _____________________________

**GIVEAWAY** When we first moved to New Zealand, I went from unlimited data to limited data and I have to be honest, it was an adjustment to my lifestyle and carefree usage of data. But now, we have beach dance parties where we can play the boys favorite music even though we forgot to download the playlist thanks to Vodafone Music Pass which means we can play music without the fear of running out of data. I'm so excited to share that I'm giving away 10 x 3-month Vodafone passes so if you want to have an impromptu dance party at the beach you can enjoy your summer tunes without using up your data allowance. #foro #giveaway #giveawaynewzealand
