A Review: Adventure Club
There have been whispers between my mom friends and I around
the Adventure ClubS App. Do you have it?
Did you see the cool adventure they did last week? That upcoming adventure with
the books looks pretty cool right? But who has actually gone on an
adventure? And what are the other moms like? AND is it really as cool as it
looks?
My Experience:
So, I took the dive. I went on an adventure, and you know
what? My little boy LOVED it! Seriously, I couldn’t believe how he just fitted
in seamlessly with the other kids! It made my mommy heart flutter with all
sorts of emotions (you know, ranging from ‘That’s so effing adorable, to wait!
Stop! Don’t grow up so fast! You still need me – remember?)
The adventure we went on was one hosted by Leafy Greens Café
and Farm in Muldersdrift. So first up, the mom’s are all so amazing. They are
welcoming and friendly and it’s just a really great environment. Kids are
having meltdowns (because that’s #ToddlerLife right there) and the attitudes
are just like, ‘you know what, at least I’m in a beautiful setting while this
is happening’.
On our adventure we picked up a basket (though you’re
encouraged to bring your own – whoops! #MomBrain), and set forth up and down
the veggies and plants and picked whatever we liked. My little tot was all too
independent (seriously, can we PLEASE just freeze time) and marched after the
other children, watching as they weaved in and out of the vegetables picking
what they wanted and often calling out what they had picked. This is incredible
because I didn’t even know you got purple spinach (I was quickly corrected by
one of the little girls on the adventure), but honestly – this is definitely
the kind of thing I want my little monster to know. So best you believe that we
will be back for this adventure.
In between walking around the farm and picking some veggies,
we stopped at the chicken coop to see if they had laid any eggs that we could
steal, but alas, there were none. But this also shows exactly what kind of farm
Leafy Greens really is. The chickens lay their eggs at their own pace and roam
around a large pen (and sometimes outside the pen), living a very relaxed
old-school farm life.
To end the adventure off we headed back to the Leafy Greens
Café where the kids were encouraged and allowed to make some Cranberry cookies,
mixing the ingredients (mostly) by themselves. So just imagine my heart when my
13 month old toddler lined up (on his own!) with the other children at the
table to get his bake on. (He mostly wanted to eat the vanilla essence bottle –
but that’s a story for another day).
The mixed product was whisked away and freshly baked
Cranberry cookies were brought out – and despite (I’m a critic – what can I
say) them being vegan, they were DELICIOUS.
The end result? My son loved it! And pretty much slept the
whole way home (because walking around on a farm is exhausting work).
So what is Adventure
Club?
In essence Adventure Clubs are communities of family’s who
simply enjoy EPIC childhood experiences created for parents to enjoy with their
children (We’re making memories with our little humans everyday).
It’s pretty easy actually – parents connect on the Adventure
club app to search, discover or even create local experiences that they want to
share and enjoy with their kids. There’s pretty much something for every family
on the app – from baking adventures to hiking adventures – these events are
designed with specific age groups in mind meaning that every family (no matter
the dynamic) can participate. So Adventure club can be broken into 3 easy
steps:
1)
Go to your App store and download the Adventure
ClubS App
2)
Set your location and load your card details
into the App
3)
Start searching and booking your local
adventures
