New Zealand

 


 

Take a deep breath and then jump in and see what amazing things there are to do around New Zealand.

 

There are so many things to do with children around the country that are free, like leaping from boulder to boulder at Moeraki or lazing around the sandy beaches on the shores of the Coromandel Peninsula.

 

What about taking the kids on a night time adventure at Zealandia, located in Wellington. Here they will discover how New Zealand's bush comes to life when the sun goes down. An amazing experience for children.

Then there are those activities that you have to put your hand in your pocket to pay for but that can be once-in-a-lifetime experiences for you and your children. Imagine your child's face as they look up at you while swimming with dolphins in the blue waters of the Bay of Islands or seeing their sheer delight as they look out of the helicopter's window at the Southern Alps for the very first time.

 

For parents with older children who are looking for something with a bit more of a thrill then you can't go past getting them to jump off a bridge in Queenstown with only a bungy cord strapped to their ankles or having them rolling down a hill in a giant Zorb ball in Rotorua.

 

Getting your family active could take you and your children on a bike tour on the Otago Rail Trail  - or sit back and get your camera out as you sail on the waters of Milford Sounds.

 

During winter it's time to hit the slopes with both the North and South Island having many wonderful family-friendly ski fields, some with creches.

 

These are only a few of the things you can do with your children while on holiday in New Zealand... so start looking around the Family Fun section for great vacation ideas.
