Find it at: Main Street in Myponga
Myponga Nature Playground opened in mid 2018 and was a very welcome addition to the local area. This is another nature themed playground from the folks at Nature Play Landscaping who are behind some of our other favourite playgrounds including the new one at Point Turton
The park has lots of wooden and rope climbing features, swings, wooden monkey bars/climbing ladder and a nice big sandpit.
A beautiful spot to stop for a play and it’s located on the main street of Myponga right between a bakery and take away shop, cant go wrong with that! It’s fully fenced, there’s a BBQ and the large shady trees surrounding the park make up for no shade sail (trees are way better anyway)
There’s also no toilets on site, but there are public toilets across the road, maybe 400m walk away.
Check out the Myponga markets across the road open 9:30 am until 4:00pm Saturdays, Sundays and most Public Holidays and it’s also not far to the Myponga Reservoir Reserve. Lots to do in the area so make a day of it!

Nature play has to be one of the most wonderful ways to connect with your child. Not only does it give opportunities to have lots of fun, get a little bit messy and to get outdoors, but it also lets you be creative together! Here is a list of all the ways we love to play in nature! Create a mud kitchen – Grab a few bowls, spoons, jugs, saucepans – anything in the kitchen that you don’t really need and add dirt and water. Instant mud kitchen! Grab some nature items so that your mud pies look amazing! Get creative with clay or playdough – Set up your dough with flowers, herbs, shells, seed pods and pinecones for some amazing playdough or clay play! Paint with nature – Add your favourite nature odds and ends to the painting table. We love painting on rocks and putting them around our garden. Draw with Nature – Same idea as above, but use pastels, crayons, or chalks (less mess too!) Pinecone Weaving – Collect pinecones and add string or wool, for a fun weaving experience. Start a Nature Collection – Starting a collection is fun! It gives you something to look out…

Nature Play is here to stay! For the curious minds and kids who love a bit of variety in their play, Nature Play is challenging the traditional playground equipment for a diverse playground experience. At times we do not have the extra time to take a road trip out of the city to a national park or a recreation reserve, so a Nature Play Playground can be the next best thing to keep active and in touch with nature. Nature Play Playgrounds can feature running water, sand, logs, natural landscapes and may even feature a creek. Here’s the list of what we think are THE BEST nature playgrounds you’ll find in Adelaide (in no particular order) To find out more about the playgrounds you’ll find them in scroll down.
