So wise travellers of Mumsnet, we’re off to Australia next August for 2-3 weeks. Me, DH, DS6 & DD3.

What would you recommend as must do’s? Definitely going to spend a week in Sydney. Would love to do Melbourne or Kangaroo Island but think it might be a bit chilly in August.

Obvious choice is Goldcoast, but would like to do things that are unique to Australia not just theme parks.

Think the kids are a bit young for barrier reef/ far North Queensland. I’d love to see Uluru/ Red centre but think a bit boring for young kids.

WA seems a long way away and Darwin/NT again doesn’t look great for very young kids.

So has anyone been with kids this age? What was a must see?

Hello. Just wondering how your trip went and how your kids coped with the flight?
