Toys and Games That Bring Out “The Aussie” in Aussie Kids

The great outdoors is what makes living in Australia so awesome! Not that it’s the only thing that is fantastic about Australia of course, there are many other great features like our multi-cultural atmosphere, an ever growing economy teeming with countless opportunities, and its penchant for standards that lay the groundwork for a great quality of life. But because the country is endowed by unrivalled natural beauty, Australians are bound to love the outdoor life. Most Aussies love swimming, hiking, camping, biking, jogging, skating, surfing, strolling, having a BBQ, reading a book under a tree and all the other fun activities you can do outside with nature.

If you’re a kid living in Australia, outdoor fun should be coupled with exciting games… and toys! So in celebration of this year’s Australia Day, here's a list of thrilling toys and games that can bring out the “Aussie” in kids and grownups too.
