Lot’s on at KidsTown these school holidays FUN has been in full swing at KidsTown Adventure Playground with lockdown ending just in time for the school holidays. Spread across five acres, KidsTown provides children of all ages and abilities with hours of entertainment for the price of a gold coin donation. What began as a community project in 1995, KidsTown is now a million-dollar project with ever increasing attractions, including a sensory fruit bin and dairy maze, paying tribute to the orchard and dairy industries that continue to thrive in the Goulburn Valley. In 2020, KidsTown was recognised by Time Out magazine as one of the state’s best adventure parks and playgrounds, attracting more than 150,000 visitors to the park each year. Featuring fully fenced play spaces, a maze, amphitheater, flying fox, giant slides, old-fashioned tree houses, barbecues and more, there are endless low-cost options to treat the kids. If you’re feeling more adventurous, horse and camel riding tours can be arranged for a ride around the river or a tutorial with an experienced instructor. KidsTown Adventure Playground is open every day from dawn until dusk. The café is open 10am to 3pm and the miniature train takes passengers from 11am to 2pm. For more information, phone KidsTown on 5831 4213 or visit their website: kidstown.org.au
