Elewana’s new kids activities are designed to connect younger guests to the surrounding environment whilst on safari. Guided wildlife activities include animal tracking and spoor identification, navigation using stars and natural landmarks, bird walks culminating in a Mini Twitcher badge, and scorpion searches after dark for older children. Cultural experiences range from Maasai-inspired bow and arrow training and spear making led by local Askaris, to baobab storytelling sessions and an introduction to the story of Elsa the lioness at Elsa's Kopje Meru.
For younger children, there are cookie decorating sessions, build-your-own pizza with the camp chef, marshmallow roasting and storytelling around the fire, and garden-to-table harvesting in the camp shamba. Conservation-focused activities include tree planting using indigenous seed balls and herb planting in the lodge garden.
For families looking for quieter moments together, Giant Lawn Jenga with wildlife fun facts, croquet and a selection of locally made Jabali board games are available across all properties. Activities vary by property and are led by experienced guides and staff throughout.
