For a year that was exactly 365 days, 2022 felt long and fast … all at the same time! So what fun placed opened in the east last year? Here are the ones we road tested - both brand newbies or refurbished beauties.
Mamma can’t go past a good deal and two playgrounds for the price of one is as good as it gets. Cameron Avenue and Progress Park Reserve are a feast for the eyes, with brilliant pops of pink and yellow that carry across both spaces for the dopamine hit this Mamma needs after a *very* early morning. If Pinterest designed a playground - this would be it.
Mamma has spotted another new playground and it's an absolute beauty! Featuring a HUGE 9m high play tower including, not one, not two BUT three separate slides all at different heights.
A sweet little playground has opened on the site of the old Burwood brickworks and quarry, and taking inspiration from the history of the area. There is a slide, rope climbing, swings and lots of green space.
You know you’re in Richmond when the playground is Yellow and Black…. and it’s next to be a footy oval.
Citizen’s Park has just been re-done and it is AMAZING!
Buckmaster Drive Playground is all fresh and new and definitely worth checking out. It has a gorgeous wide slide surrounded by soft rubber that is perfect for the younger ones. Mamma’s 1 year old loved walking up and sliding down, although beware the slide is a fast one!
Luke Polkinghorne Reserve in Mooroolbark has had a massive facelift and it looks fantastic. Walk along the bridge and you’ll notice the theme is very much timber and rope.
5 4 3 2....FUN! It's easy to see why this playground is an absolute winner and with a new facelift and a lot of restoration, the Rocket Park is bound to stay in the memories of Boroondara families for years to come.
The locals of Warrandyte are always on to a good thing and now they have a BRAND NEW playground to find some adventure!
Have you ever been to a sensory playground? There is a NEW one that Mamma LOVES in Notting Hill.
We have another new playground in town….and this one is already a massive hit with the locals! Sitting above Abbey Walk in Vermont, Culbara Drive playground and it is huge for a street playground.
We love when a playground gets as makeover and Deepdene has had a well deserved up do!
