Imagine Telunas

2019|FamilyBy Marisa Ranney

Kids love playing pretend. They are always lost in their imagination - fighting terrifying dragons, singing to a crowd of thousands, journeying on quests around the world. There is no limit to a child's imagination. Good imagination leads to creative adults, innovators, and entrepreneurs. Want to foster a healthy imagination in your child? Give them a change of pace.

Get them off the couch, out of the house and away from their screens. Take them out of the ordinary, everyday life. Bring them to a new and exciting place. How about a tropical island? How about Telunas?

A World of Adventure Awaits

Give your kids an experience they'll never forget. Bring them to a warm, sunny island with sprawling white beaches, palm trees, and an endless ocean. Their adventure begins even before they arrive - the boat ride out to the island can become their very own sea voyage. They can scour the water for wildlife and plantlife unique to SE Asia, watch countless islands and island villages drift by, and imagine what it is like to live there.

They arrive at the resort - or a remote jungle outpost, according to them. They can spend their days in the ocean, pretending to be marine biologists, mermaids, or dolphins. Telunas Beach and the gently lapping water is the perfect place to reenact The Little Mermaid. They can play on the beach, digging in the soft sand for buried treasure and having play sword fights as pirates. They can be jungle explorers, trekking along the tree-line under the trees, making amazing new discoveries like finding plants and flowers they've never seen before.

Join In the Fun

Mom and dad can join in the fun too. Captain the kayak as you race the length of the beach on the water. Be a fisherman for an afternoon and learn alongside your kids how to fish the traditional Malay way. Lead an expedition through the jungle up to the low ropes course and transform into Indiana Jones as your family attempts to complete the obstacle course. Get your blood pumping with a game of soccer or volleyball - pretend you're playing for the Championship and encourage your little athletes.

Stargazing and Stories

At night, when the stars appear, take your kids out on the beach and see how many constellations you can pick out. Can you find the Big Dipper? How about Orion? If you're lucky, you will see a shooting star! Gather around the beach bonfire and tell stories as you roast marshmallows. Sing campfire songs and have a dance party. The opportunities for imagination are endless at Telunas. Away from social media and screens, your children will have the freedom to imagine and play to their hearts' content.
