This app is for parents who are searching for activities for their kids or outings that the family can enjoy together. This is the most comprehensive database ever assembled in Ireland and contains approximately 1000 locations made up of outdoor playgrounds, indoor soft play centres, play cafés, bowling alleys and family outings such as petting farms, zoo & wildlife, aquariums, waterparks and manor houses with garden walks in the Republic of Ireland.

The locations on the app are the precise GPS locations, so the user can be assured they will arrive at the exact location. The accuracy of the data is the highest priority for us.

The app is ideal for families on holidays with young children, taking a long car journey, or just exploring further afield from the usual haunts in their local area. The app will save you the time and hassle of searching for locations which often can be extremely difficult to find without local knowledge.

You can search by current location, by town, or input your destination and the app will tell you all the activity locations along the way.

The playgrounds and kids & family activities, together with directions are displayed on a map on your smart phone or tablet. The app uses GPS and location services on your phone to guide you to the precise location.

The user is shown directions on the app and also has the option to output direction handling to Apple Maps or Google Maps.

The app provides the contact details of the activity centres with links to their Facebook page and website, and a one touch phone dial feature.
