Australian Animal Tracking: Use small toys or cardboard cut-outs of Australian animals and hide them around the garden (or house if the party is inside). Leave clues such as footprints, feathers or food and let the kids find all the hidden animals.
If you don’t have too many children to look after or have help from other parents, take a trip to the zoo to see the real thing.
Older children may enjoy an Australian Animal quiz (make sure everyone gets a prize so that no one feels left out).
Food & Snacks:
Make a koala shaped cake: Use a large round cake for the body, a smaller round cake for the head and two cup-cakes for the ears. Decorate with light chocolate icing (grey doesn’t look very appetising).
Snacks can have an Australian theme, foods like Anzac biscuits and vegemite sandwiches.
