EleFun Centre at Bush Lodge
We love making every member of the family feel at home. Which is why we created our EleFun Centre for children ages 4 to 12. Alive with energy and excitement, it's a magical place in which kids can wiggle, giggle, be entertained and play.
Relax knowing that the children are cared for and happy
An exciting range of nature-themed activities and adventures.
Sparking imaginations in a secure space
Nestled in the shade of indigenous trees, EleFun is buzzing with energy. It comprises of an indoor discovery room, an arts and crafts studio/playroom which leads out into a secured outdoor playground packed with jungle gyms, mazes, fields and more.
Geared for adventurers aged 4 to 12
EleFun runs separate activities for various age groups at no additional fee to you. The Junior Tracker programme is for 4 to 8-year-olds while the Junior Rangers are aged 9 to 12. Leave your young cubs in our team’s care or feel free to join your little ones at the EleFun Centre as they explore and enjoy their way to becoming conservationists of the future.
Varied and creative edutainment
While EleFun’s daily programme varies, the safari theme is consistent and is brought to life in a blend of activities including arts, crafts and games. Bush walks, bush talks, animal identification and child-friendly game drives led by enthusiastic guides also form part of the adventure-filled day.
