CHILDREN‘S PROGRAM

The aim of the Tintswalo Children’s Program is to provide young visitors with a fun, educational perspective of the African bush, thus enriching their safari experience.

On arrival children will be introduced to their Field Guide or Children’s coordinator. They will be informed about the activities, workbook, and most importantly safety procedures. The children will each receive a “Brat Bag” with pen, pencil, bino’s, cup and Activity Workbook for them to take home.

Each day’s events will be divided into themes concentrating on different aspects of the Bush. Each theme consists of a talk, game drive and an activity. The themes below are a guideline of what can be offered, and the program is flexible to suite individual booking requirements. On each game drive snacks and drinks will be provided. Special children’s menus are also offered at the Lodge. Game drives and walking activities will be conducted in accordance with Tintswalo safari policies with particular emphasis on safety procedures. Please find our Child Policy attached herewith.

All activities in the Children’s Program are age appropriate and the Program has been compiled by a professional educator with 8 years childcare experience. The Activity Workbook is designed for children of school going age but activities for toddlers are arranged as well. Games and TV are also available. Childminding is available at additional cost, details provided on request.
