New program to teach keiki about sugarcane in Kōloa

A new educational keiki program will be launched at Kōloa Landing Resort next month.

Starting on Nov. 1, families arriving to the resort and traveling with children between the ages of 3 and 11 have the option to receive a complimentary adventure pack and activity booklet with directions and a map for the sugarcane scavenger hunt.

“Kōloa Landing Resort celebrates sugarcane through modern authentic indulgences from sugarcane accents in spa treatments and raw sugarcane used in mixed drinks to now our sugarcane scavenger hunt,” Andy Evers, general manager of Kōloa Landing Resort. “Sugarcane is what makes Kōloa Landing Resort unique and families will have the opportunity to experience this in a fun and educational way through our Kaua‘i is for Kids program.”

The complimentary adventure pack includes a sun hat, binoculars, compass and sunglasses. Children will also receive an activity book, containing facts about sugarcane and directions for the sugarcane scavenger hunt.

The sugarcane scavenger hunt includes a map with markers that lead to seven signs around the property with fun facts about sugarcane and Kōloa’s history. Each sign is marked with a code word that together unveils a secret message leading to a prize. For more information about the Kaua‘i is For Kids program, click here.
