Among the many things that Brisbane£¨²¼Àï˹°à£©, Australia, does really well is the care for kids. Here’s a list of places that we think will be suitable for your kids.

Swimming pools

Simple way for happiness: mix kids with water. Of course, this is a choice for the hot summer months.

Parks

Free outdoor fun—that’s what Brisbane’s parks offer kids of all ages. Parks encourage imagination and activity for little people and a place for parents to let them run wildly.

The Children’s Art Centre

The Children’s Art Centre has proven very popular with their programs and exhibitions. We love the artist-run workshops and performances£¨unusually you must pay some money£©specially designed for children too.

South Bank Parklands

South Bank Parklands has everything you need to keep little ones amused. Take them for a swim at the man-made beach, play on one of the playgrounds by the river. On weekends, go through the arts market or go to a cheap movie at the South Bank cinema. South Bank Parklands often hosts free events and performances too.

Roma Street Parkland

Close to bus transport, this inner city parkland is easily accessible£¨¿É½øÈëµÄ£©and ideal for kids of all ages. Younger kids can take a trip on the Jelly Bean Express, a 1. 3 km trackless train ride around the parkland or there’s a playground to explore. Free entry and open daily.

Skating and climbing

We love the places that let the kids expend all that youthful energy. Take them roller skating or ice skating. Or try rock climbing at a variety of indoor and outdoor places around Brisbane.
