When the temperature starts to drop and the weather is more scarfs and jackets than swimmers and sandals, it is the perfect time to pursue some indoor activities with the kids. Before you break out the arts and crafts, why not consider an activity that won't have you cleaning poster paint off your kitchen cabinets for the whole weekend? Musicals, pantos and theatre performances are a great way to spend an afternoon or evening as a family (and the perfect alternative if you are trying to limit everyone's screen time), so we have rounded up some of the best family-friendly shows in Sydney for you to enjoy this winter.
