We had heard a few other Sydney parents talking about Power Play before we booked, so we went in with fairly high expectations. It still managed to surprise us. Nine rooms, two kids, one very sweaty hour later, we walked out already talking about when we’d go back. If you’re after something for the school […]
Thornleigh Brickpit Playground
We took the kids out to the Thornleigh Brickpit Playground this afternoon. Honestly, you can see everyone is thrilled. It was crowded upon our arrival — and there isn’t much shade yet, so I expect it to get hot and sticky during summer — but how about everything else? Very good. This aquatic play area […]
Carss Park Playground
Carss Park Playground is a hidden gem for families in Sydney’s south. It’s so close to our home, but every time we come here it feels like a mini holiday. We were planning to go for a coastal walk today, but the wind coming straight from Antarctica was way too strong and freezing — honestly […]
Lyne Park Playground
Once you become a parent, the weekends basically become a quest to find great places where they can run free and play. So this weekend, we ended up at Lyne Park. If you happen to be in Sydney, don’t just hit up the typical popular places. Take a slight detour and visit calmer, lovely areas […]
Oatley Bush Park Playground
We brought the kid to Oatley Park today, close to Hurstville, and honestly, it was great. I would definitely recommend it. The very first time we visited, our kid had just turned two. The day was bright and sunny—a day where in which all photos appear perfect. Today was totally different: cloudy, rainy, a bit […]
John Wearn Reserve Playground

Charles Heath Reserve Playground
Today we took out kid to a very popular playground, the Charles Heath Reserve Playground. It’s near Canada Bay / Five Dock. This park is known to get really busy. I went on a Tuesday and couldn’t even find parking nearby — ended up parking at the Five Dock Leisure Centre. That alone tells you […]
Area 51 Castle Hill
A brand new indoor playground opened in Castle Hill. We had to go check it out—and yep, it was BUSY. Glad we went earlier, because by the afternoon the lines were even longer and parking got tight. We booked a 4:30pm session (1.5 hours) last minute, and luckily did it online—5–12 tickets were already sold […]
Mindarie Park
Highly recommend Mindarie Park today, me and my kid absolutely love it! Mindarie Park reviews The wooden slide comes with a gentle ramp, plus there’s a climbing wall and ladders, kids can use both hands and feet to climb up, great for burning energy. The sandpit area is also fully fenced, so you don’t have […]
Playground Darling Harbour
Darling Harbour playground day! The weather was finally not too cold, so we took our kid to play at Darling Harbour Playground. Playground at Darling Quarter Darling Quarter recently opened a really nice new outdoor playground designed for older kids, and it’s actually pretty good! Today was all about “hands-off parenting mode” — we took […]
