Hay's Paddock Adventure Playground


An adventure playground for all abilities
Longstaff Street
Kew East
Melbourne, VIC 3101
Australia
+61 3 9278 4444
Hay's Paddock bills itself as the first community playground in Australia designed for children of all physical and intellectual abilities. It certainly provides stimulation for all senses with lots of interesting things to feel and smell: listening tubes, brightly coloured climbing equipment and even a treehouse with pretend binoculars for birdwatching. Some signs are in Braille and there are special swings suitable for disabled children. The playground takes up one corner of a large area of playing fields, bushland and wetlands that are home to many native birds.

Jells Park


Wide open spaces
Jells Road
Wheelers Hill
Melbourne, VIC 3150
Australia
http://www.parkweb.vic.gov.au
Bring the bikes, roller blades, bats, balls, kites, barbecue lunch, something to feed the ducks, oh and do not forget the kids! If you are in need of fresh air and free, healthy family fun, this huge park in Melbourne's outer east will keep the whole clan occupied for hours. Fitness fanatics can follow the exercise circuit but parents with prams can take their time on the many meandering walking tracks. Just keep an eye out for the speeding cyclists and rollerbladers.

Wattle Park


Bushland oasis in the suburbs
1012 Riversdale Road
Surrey Hills
Melbourne, VIC 3127
Australia
+61 3 9888 9989
http://www.parkweb.vic.gov.au/
Generations of Melbourne children have climbed in, out and over the old trams parked here, rather incongruously, in the bushland setting. They are still a major drawcard of this sprawling park, which also comprises a golf course, tennis courts, barbecues and an oval. At the centre of the park is the charming Wattle Park Chalet, built in the 1920's and often used for receptions. A newer addition is a well-designed and constructed adventure playground. Apart from the odd traffic noises, it is easy to imagine you are in the bush. A kiosk near the golf course sells light snacks.
