Life is about experiences, not stuff and we’ve got 12 awesome prizes designed to bring families together to have PLAYful adventures they won’t forget - one for every month of the year! As the pace of life spins faster, we want to provide a way for families to reconnect, slow down and make space to just be. The Year of Awesome is our little way of prompting us all to remember that we only have one life and we need to get out and experience it before our kids start doing it without us :) Buy tickets for a chance to win one of these amazing experiences.

View experiencePlayground Ideas is an Australian non-profit committed to seeing the world’s children thrive. Right now, 250 million children under 5 lack the adequate stimulation needed to reach their full development potential and we are here to change that. Play based stimulation in early childhood is the most powerful tool to build children’s brains which dramatically increases educational and long term life outcomes. It also has the side effect of making children much happier :) So far, we have supported 1885 communities in 143 countries to build stimulating play spaces, using locally sourced and recycled materials.
