Alreeeet like! I’m Jamie.

Aussie dad. Self-appointed expert in playgrounds, breweries and getting kids home before they lose it.

Real photo coming. This is my good side.

Why Dadventures?

Because every weekend I’d stand in the kitchen at 8am with a coffee asking the same question: where the hell do we go today?

So I started keeping a list. Which playgrounds have shade. Which breweries let the kids run around. Which swimming holes are freezing (all of them). Which walks are short enough that nobody needs carrying. The list got big, so I put it on a map. Then I put a website around the map. Then I designed a backpack. It got out of hand.

Co-host: G-POD

My daughter, chief tester and the toughest critic in Australia. Every playground, swimming hole and snack on this site has been through the G-POD. If she’s not into it, it’s not on here.

Everything on here is stuff G-POD and I have tried, stuffed up and tried again. If I’ve got something wrong, tell me. If you know a spot I’ve missed, definitely tell me.
