We present to you - the rainbow playground! You really can’t go past a playspace that has pretty much EVERYTHING. From the huge twin climbing and slide structure, to the expression swing (you know the ones … where you and your toddler can share the swing). Add to this an insect hotel space with beautiful flowers and nature play, a half court basketball court PLUS a ninja play course complete with bars to swing and balance on.
Oh there is ALSO a spinning pyramid structure that the kids thought it was hilarious to throw their hats off in mid flight. Then there is the trail near by, complete with traffic signs to remind the kids to slow down on their bikes.
Oh, almost forgot - there is a rocking train in the middle of the park which is perfect for spotting the REAL things whizz past on the train line next door. All of these factors help make this playground one of Mamma’s new favourites. There is a great amount of shade, plenty of grass to set up base and a BBQ shelter too.
Mamma’s special mention: Need something sweet? Head down the road to the delicious Oakleigh Doughnut Company.
the nitty gritty
picnic tables - shade - limited parking (but not impossible - walking/bike trails nearby - bbqs - no toilets, but some public ones nearby (550m walk back to Hughesdale Train Station) - expression swing - drink tap
