Kids in Adelaide – Our Favourite Playgrounds in Adelaide
It’s really hard to choosing our favourite playgrounds because we all like something different. Some kids like risky equipment, fast slides and lots of other kids, where as other kids like small parks where they can not feel overwhelmed. That’s why we try and review all sorts of playgrounds, not just the biggest and the “best” ones.
But if you’re looking for a playground bucket list of the “must do” in Adelaide. These would be our pick

Hey Roxy
I’ve been a big fan (+ my 2.75 yr old) of the Bunnings indoor playgrounds over the last few weeks (while it’s been peeing down). You should give them a try – they come with a mediocre but cheap cafe – you just hang out on the outdoor furniture while your kid goes mental :0)
Kim
Great idea Kim! Thanks for the suggestion.
Hey I just noticed that when I click on the icon at this address – Ballater Ave, Campbelltown – Unity Park, Pooraka comes up. ??
Thanks Amanda, all fixed 🙂
Also a few great playgrounds are missing – Goldenfields in Golden Grove, Klemzig Gaza, and Cobbler Creek playground at the top of Smith Rd. Thanks so much for putting them all in one spot though, Its awesome!
