Adelaide Botanic Garden Tiny Summer Program.
Take your little one to Adelaide Botanic Garden this January for a fun-filled Tiny Summer program.
Embrace all things small through a range of activities, from a musical adventure to creating your own mini magical garden… and more!
Start your visit by marvelling at a fun-sized model of Adelaide Botanic Garden, which has been shrunk down to teensy trees and a petite Palm House. The model depicts a scene from 1871 when a pioneering hot air balloon flight set to the skies and a pair of brave trapeze artists performed daredevil tricks to cheering crowds.
Play I-spy as you spot quirky additions such as a bear and kangaroos, and press a button to make the hot air balloon move up and down. Read more about this cool, free-to-view model here.
Then entertain your kids with these fun activities:
- Budding green thumbs can create magical gardens or tiny terrariums.
- Join the hilarious Charlie D on a musical adventure through the Garden.
- Get crafty and make cute botanical critters.
- Enjoy yoga amongst the trees with your smallest family members.
- Get your science on at a fascinating insect investigation.
- Discover art that’s so small, it’s invisible…until you use a free app on your device to reveal it! Read our Seeing the Invisible Review.
- Embark on tiny-themed guided tours to explore the Garden and Aboriginal culture.
While you’re in the Garden, take a picnic or head to the café or kiosk, where there’s a kids menu, plenty of ice cream and great coffee.
