He is not bothered about what things cost as long as he can see and touch he will be excited by all the free things to see and do there. Can’t wait to take them.

    I still love going through the showbag section of the newspaper and then purchasing at the show . My son doesn’t get why I do it . I love the games and trying to win my son teddies, which we end up buying when I lose. I also love that every year my son is adamant he is going in the Haunted House, but then can’t bring himself to do it. For weeks before the show he talks about it. I’ll have to buy him something special the year he does it!

    I would just love to take kids to the show. We took our oldest one when she was 3 (now 12) and she enjoyed the few rides and the baby farm animals. We didn’t have a funds to take our middle one (8) and the youngest one (6) yet. But I am expect they would be just happy to be there and soak the excitement and fun.

Can’t wait until they are both a bit older for a full day out and can stay for the fireworks without the over tired meltdowns at the end of the day!

    We love the yellow brick road. With 4 small children, it’s a great way to explore everything and they still enjoy it. It keeps them interested and gives us an opportunity to have a little adventure as a family. Interacting with the animals, exploring the beautiful garden displays and they LOVE taste testing a few delicious treats along the way.

    My favourite part of the show is all the memories and potential it holds. My parents used to occassionally take myself and my 7 siblings to the show as a learning experience, as we were all homeschooled. We’d learn about the animals, watch the woodchopping, look at the machinery… we’d each have to budget our own money for swhowbags and rides, and plan out what we wanted to do, which taught us organisation skills. I’d love to go again as it’s been years since I’ve been!

    I’ve always loved the show – since I was tiny myself. The cake decorating, the music, the pizza in a cone, the bonsai trees, the RAINBOW and the ZIPPER rides (long gone now), the yellow brick road. When I was little I used to love getting the fairy floss that had a little doll stuck on top! Now… this will be the second year I get to take my son… he is one, and I know he’s going to love the show just as much as me!

    The best thing about the show is seeing how happy it makes my kids, the look they get when they see the rides, the showbags halls…..i havent been in 5yrs with my lot i now have 6 boys that are hanging to go….its an expensive day but its worth every cent

    My kids and I really enjoy the dog and cat shows. They love seeing all the different breeds and it takes us a fair amount of time to wander through so it breaks up the day. Along with the pavilions, the farm animals and the other free stuff it stretches the day out and we’re not constantly spending money

    We would like to see the sheep dogs in action, the needlework, the utes driven by females showing the guys how it’s done – we have some fantastic championship winners….and and the finale – the fireworks

    The animals are, and always have been, a massive highlight!

    Unfortunately, my family and I live down in the country (3 hours away from Adelaide), so we haven’t had the opportunity to go to the Adelaide Show in about 10 years. The last time I went, I was only a small child and so I can’t really remember much haha, but we would really love the opportunity to be able to go again!:) Thank you.
