If there is one place that comes to life in spring time better than any place on earth, it’d have to be Far North Queensland! Well maybe I’m a little biased as I’m a 4th generation local, but there are honestly not too many places in this world that compare to our little piece of paradise at this time of year. Everything is lush and green, flowers are blooming, wildlife are active, and the weather is simply spot on!
We had the pleasure of capturing our cover image at the picturesque Botanic Gardens this edition and it was a place that certainly put spring time on display in all its glory. In this edition of KidsLife Magazine we are excited to share with you so many wonderful moments captured at our recent KidsLife Expo hosted at Seville Mercy Centre and all the fun activities local families got up to. Not even the rain could keep the 1,500+ attendees away from flooding through the gates! The team is already well advanced in planning for our next one in 2025!

We can’t wait to go even bigger and better again!

In our spring edition we hear from our expert contributors, Dr Justin Coulson on How To Parent A Stubborn Child and Maggie Dent on Why Our Teens Need To Learn About Failure, and Alison Fitzsimmons who talks about Nurturing Early Learning And Interconnection.
It’s a jam-packed edition and we hope you enjoy it as much as we’ve enjoyed creating it for you.
