KidDrop: Kids Days Out

New: local family events near you…

Finding something to do with the kids shouldn't mean twelve browser tabs and a group chat.

KidDrop gathers the family-friendly places and events around you into one place, and tells you what you actually need to know before you go: how far it is, what it costs, what ages it suits, and how to get there.

WHAT'S ON NEAR YOU Fairs, story times, farm days, festivals and shows happening locally, pulled together into a single feed. Every listing carries the date, the venue, the distance from you, the price where it's published, and a link straight to the original source.

BROWSE IT YOUR WAY Keep the familiar cards, or switch the Fun tab to bubbles — where every kind of day out drifts by as its own character. It's a genuinely nice way to let a child choose where they'd like to go.

NARROW IT DOWN FAST Filter by month, by price, and by the kind of outing. Looking for something free this weekend? Something indoors because it's pouring? Two taps.

EVERY KID-FRIENDLY SPOT ON THE MAP Parks, beaches, playgrounds, aquariums, museums, libraries and more, mapped around you wherever you are. Tap a spot for opening hours, typical visit length, cost and contact details — plus today's weather, so you know whether it's a park day or a museum day.

KEEP THE PLAN Save an outing to your calendar and it sits with the rest of your family plans. Bookmark the ones you want to come back to.

MAKE IT YOURS Five themes, light or dark to follow your phone, and your choice of layout.

PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account required. There's no server holding your family's data — everything stays on your device and, if you choose to sign in, in your own iCloud. Location is optional and only used to centre the map and measure distance. Calendar access is only requested if you actually save an event.

WHERE IT WORKS The map works worldwide. Event listings come from Ticketmaster internationally, with additional local coverage in Ireland through Fáilte Ireland's open data — so the events feed is richest there and grows as more sources are added.

KidDrop is built for parents and guardians. Child profiles are entries you create yourself; they stay on your device and in your own iCloud.
