It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas and here at Kiddo Mag we have been busy little elves putting together a list of the very best of Christmas Adelaide has to offer. Share the magic of Christmas with your little people at one of the many pageants. Capture their joy with Santa and be able to treasure the memory
for a lifetime. See their faces light up at the many Christmas light displays from Lobethal to the West End Brewery. And join together as a family and jingle-all-the-way at a local carols. You will be full of Christmas cheer come December 25th if you take full advantage of all the merry events Adelaide has to offer this Christmas season.
