Toddler friendly holiday ideas please!

There are so many choices.. A holiday by the beach.. Except in June you can't go swimming

Holiday out in the country somewhere. I am not sure what is down your way.. We have taken our 2 yr olds to museums and huge city walks..

Camping.. Although might be cold down there.

GREAT topic, we're also looking at going on a toddler holiday in July/August.

We were going to do NZ but decided against it in winter, at least until she's older.

LOVE the 'staycation' idea. Theres heaps of things we want to do around Brisbane and the Gold Coast!

Might start an 'overseas holiday' thread, since I'm not sure what direction you want this thread to go in!

We went to Uluru, Kings Canyon, Alice Springs in the middle of last year (not camping, we stayed at the resort). It was a great holiday for DD, who was then 18 months old. It wasn't very crowded (we didn't go in school holidays) and DD could run along all the paths, do most of the walks with us and loved having picnics everywhere! I wasn't expecting to enjoy the holiday nearly as much as I did, but it was just so relaxing being outside all the time, in the quiet, where DD could run around and collect rocks to her hearts content. The red sand was also a major winner with a toddler

Ooh good thread, I'll be watching this.

But also love the staycation idea. I hate flying myself! And you actually get to explore the city you live in.

We did a farmstay for NYE 08/09. DD was 3.5yrs & DS was 4 months. DD loved it, got to feed the animals, collect eggs (then eat them!!) & milk the cows! It was a great family holiday

I took DD to the Gold Coast when she was 2yrs old, we did dreamworld & whitewater world & she loved it, there are heaps of rides for the littlies (wiggle world) & they love meeting characters from kids tv shows!!!! Just make sure you take a packed lunch as its very expensive to buy food there!!

Fiji have some great deals going at the moment. Resort style holiday and the Fijian's are wonderful with kids. Can even get a nanny at night so you can go out for dinner.
Alot of the deals include everything such as meals, drinks and so on.
