Out & About with Kids is now in it's 10th year of publication. The autumn issue has hit the newsstands and is a prelude to the exciting 'celebrations' to be rolled out across the brand's print and digital spaces in the second half of 2014.
We preview the 2014 Australia & New Zealand ski season in Ski Downunder, ahead of our bumper 'Ski The Globe' annual winter feature, including tips for the littlest of shredders to safely learn to snowboard. Our 'Scuba and Snorkelling for Kids' feature introduces water babies to a whole new world under the sea and you could even win a family holiday to Vanuatu, including airfares!
Publisher Elisa Elwin says this issue's special accessible travel feature is heart-warming.
“Families who have children with special needs don't necessarily lose the desire to travel. Their stories are truly inspirational in the thoughtful ways they address those challenges to make their family holiday dreams a reality.”
Eight-year-old Lil and her grandpa tell us about their memorable Blue Mountains family getaway and we uncover kid-friendly Hong Kong and Dubai, go beyond Bangkok for some fabulous resorts - and present our pick of holidays, including cruises, for bubs and tots.
Take a peek inside today's thoroughly modern motorhomes and find out how to make the most of a family road trip in your home-away-from-home on wheels.
We're still busy tallying the phenomenal number of votes in our Best Of Family Travel Awards and we'll have the results in our winter issue, on sale July 10.
Elwin Media is also welcoming a new editorial team to the magazine … associate publisher Richard Bunting, editor Christine Kane and assistant editor Lisa Monk (brief bios attached).
