Travel Australia With Kids was born when I was about to embark on our travels and I could not find much information that was relevant to our situation. There are many travel sites, but not specific to the challenges and joys of travelling with children. From the homeschooling curriculum, family friendly places to stay, great camping recipes, your camping checklist, I could not find much ‘real’ information. You know… without all the commercial bias!


The site is intended to have a real interaction experience, and we encourage you to share your story and help other families as well as ask questions and find out information from other travelling families. Almost every page has (or soon will have) an opportunity for you to join in. I call families that Travel Australia With Kids; TAWKers – I love the way the acronym sounds like ‘talk’ and here, we can ‘TAWK’ about it!
So Welcome! And when you are on the road travelling make sure you stay in touch.
