Because I’ve never been to a flower show–it sounds magical. Although I would probably be more excited than my little princesses. Hopefully my excitement would be contagious. Maybe enough to foster a life-long love and appreciation for our natural world.

Grab the family,camera and packs,
Floriade- read up on the facts,
family bonding, no mobile phones,
discovering all the beautiful flowers, our minds will be blown!

I have never taken the kids but my husband and I used to go every weekend before we had kids and my daughter especially would love to see all of the flowers in bloom

Because school holidays seems so boring and I am looking for a change and what else could bd the best to visit floriade.

That gardens are not just for adults, not for just looking and not touching… they are alive, fun, able to be explored, touched, smelled and grown by anyone.

My 2year old son absolutely loves flowers!
He would have so much fun at the flower festival. What an amazing family experience!

We love Spring, we love flowers, we love Canberra!
The pop culture theme sounds fabulous and we love that there is a Kids Zone so we can have some adult time too!

We have never had the opportunity to visit the festive but plan to ever year, it always seems out of reach. Thank you Canberra for such an amazing display of beauty. My family love gardening and would cherish this forever. A family who plays together stays together

Me and my partner attend Floriade every year and it is the most amazing festival for our young family who love to maintain and expand our household garden.

Its on my wish list, but not ticked off as yet!!

Tulips, roses, glorious delight.
Seeing Floriade would be a sight!
I live in the outback, red dirt abounds.
Nothing pretty grows out of my ground.
To smell and see this wonderful flower array.
Would certainly be a hit these school holidays!

I remember visiting floriade many years ago and the sight of all the colourful flowers was spectacular – I’d love for my kids to have this memory too

My family would take my Mom Betty, for her birthday. She watches the garden shows every year showcasing the Floriade. She is so sad that she can not go, I’d love to make her dreams come true. She’s our beautiful tulip who’s made us grow into the family we are.

Canberra has so much to see,
And the outdoors fills us with glee!
Inspiration for our own garden out back,
When my green thumb decides to attack!
Museums and the National Arboretum to explore,
It’s entertainment galore.

We were there today – it’s just fabulous and a great family event. The winner should enjoy it!

To visit Floriade with my family would be a pleasure,
A moment we would love and treasure,
To see this beautiful place come alive delivers zest,
Filled with scent and colour, simply the best.

I would love to experience all those beautiful flowers and see Canberra my family would enjoy quality time together doing something different

Taking time to smell the roses, while the kids run off to play, is what every mother needs to relax and enjoy the day. Ride the Ferris wheel to wrap up a wonderful day, then admire the dogs the following day.

We love the outdoors and bushwalking for glimpses of flowers

I would love to take my mum as she absolutely loves flowers and this would be a fantastic birthday present for her.
After going through breast cancer when my son was just 1.5 months old, I look at life very differently, I stop and smell the roses now.
