Find it at: South Terrace, Pooraka
Kids have the option of two separate playground equipment sets with climbs, poles and the customary slide and swings. Covered picnic benches within the playground area serve as a comfortable rest stop where parents can easily keep watch.
The more active will appreciate the fitness equipment, which includes a variety of bars and benches, and the Unity Park Skate Facility has an impressive circuit of ramps, rails, boxes, slopes and quadrangles to delight skating enthusiasts.
If that’s not enough, Unity Park is also home to The Cross Keys BMX Club and their ramps, dirt jumps and sharp bends will challenge any rider’s skills.
Sheltered picnic tables are within the playground area, and there’s a BBQ just outside the fence. The kids can enjoy plenty of equipment and space to move, and so much lush green grass to run around on or have a picnic. You’ll also find a lake and ducks to feed, and it’s a great bike riding spot.

Find it at: Miravale The fences are down at the Miravale housing development playground at Angle Vale! With some touches on their fantastic play space in the heart of the development, still being done but the locals are loving it! With a great tower and tube slide the centre piece, rock climbing wall, gym equipment, pump track, basketball court and with nature play and a whole range of other equipment for the kids to play on, this will be a winner with locals. We loved the undercover BBQ area which will be a very busy birthday party spot we reckon. Oh did we mention there are toilets?!! Word of warning they are in the development sales centre, so they are sometimes closed if the office isn't staffed. It is also really close to the local Drakes, Angle Vale Tavern, Sneaky's Restaurant and Virgara Wines so a great spot for the day trippers to plan their trek out north. Lacking a bit of shade at the moment, which is common for new developments, but give it time as they have planted a lot of trees (and have installed some nice shaded seating areas) so this should grow nicely into a really…

Find it at: Lefevre Street, North Adelaide Better known as Helicopter Park to many, Glover North Playground is located on Lefevre Terrace in North Adelaide. With a large helicopter as its centrepiece, smaller kids can slide out of the chopper's belly as one of the many pint-sized highlights located at this much loved playground. There are also plenty of swings, see-saws, climbing frames and sand play equipment including the popular diggers in the huge sandpit. Much of the playground's fun is best suited to younger kids aged 1-5 years, however older kids will also enjoy the larger climbing frames, rope bridge and forts. Most of the equipment has softfall rubber matting or barkchips to break any falls. There is a range of equipment that isn't common elsewhere with Heaps of things to climb on, slide down, walk across and more. One of the best fenced playgrounds near the CBD, Helicopter Park has shaded, grassy picnic spots, drink fountain, toilets and BBQ facilities. Keep in mind that most of the play equipment is not shaded. There are also horses agisted in the nearby parklands which the kids love - take care though as patting and feeding is not recommended. There is also a…
