All Things to Do for Kids in Perth

We had an absolute blast at Bathers Park, the newest addition to Alkimos Beach. Nestled alongside the Alkimos Beach foreshore, Bathers Park stretches across 2.5 hectares at the ocean end of Leatherback Boulevard. This vibrant beach-themed was an instant hit with my kids and completely captured their imaginations! The highlight of our visit was the impressive surf rescue play tower, soaring seven meters high. The tower boasts a large tunnel slide, speaking tubes, a lookout point, climbing ropes, and a “4 in a row” game. Beyond its entertainment value, the tower also serves an educational purpose. The kids were eager Read more…

Ashdale Park is a lovely playground situated in Darch. The playground is located at the rear of Ashdale Primary, adjacent to a small pocket of bushland. The playground here is partially shaded with shade sails. It is set well back from the road, down a pathway, so should be safe for little ones to play. The play equipment is a good mix for younger and older children. The main play structure features two slides of different sizes. One low and bumpy, while the other is tall and straight, and quite a fast ride as my little Miss soon found! She Read more…

If you haven’t heard about the amazing Jungle Park near Whiteman Park, you’d have had to be living under a rock. Little Chef and I were heading there for a play, after lunch in the Swan Valley. On our way, we stumbled on a brand new spot that we’d never heard about – Flamewood Park Playground in Brabham. Flamewood Park is a small, but brilliant playground that is mainly focused on climbing equipment. The vibrant orange ropes will keep primary school aged children scrambling around for ages, as well as confident toddlers that love to climb. The sand-fall playground lots Read more…

Set in the heart of beautiful Roleystone, Borrello Park has something for everyone! Only 15 minutes from Armadale and yet it feels like you’ve travelled hours down south! The park has actually kept part of its original structures which are a little old school but nice for the children to experience. A lovely walkway fort and slide crosses over the running brook below. The equipment is high up so probably accompanying very little ones is best. There is also a seated area underneath for children to gather and ponder! The main park has a huge modern play fort with ramps, Read more…

At the new Clementine Estate, in Upper Swan, there’s a new playground to explore. It’s worth a little look, if you happen to be near the northern end of the Swan Valley.

The wood chipped based play area has a distinct nature play feel, with the majority of the equipment being climbing orientated. There’s stepping logs, colourful climbing walls, as well as giant Read more…

Delamere Park Playground in Currambine delivers on everything you want to keep kids aged 2yrs onwards entertained and active for hours.  The only thing it doesn’t deliver on is shade and this park does sit on a main thoroughfare road.
