THE KIDS TRIBAL ADVENTURE


Whipping the kids up into three days of discovery, adventure and imagination, the Kids Tribal Adventure will run throughout the weekend with a variety of activities ranging across the site and through the active minds of Off-Grid's young voyagers. The adventure will explore tribal ritual, tradition and dress, as kids make their own rules and found their own society. Each day will be different with different flavors and activities for the kids to enjoy.

Day 1: Is the day of Stories, where the tribes will be founded, their myths and legends made and shared and the foundations of their tribes put in place.

Day 2: Is the day of Discovery with treasure hunts, nature identification, archaeology, construction and more.

Day 3: Is the day of Challenge with first the making of the armor for the warriors, the painting of faces and the preparations. Then in the afternoon the challenges begin - from Archery to obstacle courses - whilst those that stay at home prepare potions and healing salves for the brave challengers.

Day 4: Is the day of Celebration. After the challenges of the days before, the day of Celebration sees the tribes regathering at their homes, making songs and stories of their feats, preparing food and rehearsing for the great procession of the tribes. A day of unity and celebration!
