anderson reserve, coburg

Anderson Reserve is one of those perfect toddler playgrounds! It’s bright, fresh and recently upgraded and it’s fully FENCED! (It’s also large enough for each section of equipment to be separated, helping with social distancing!)

There are lots of unique play opportunities in this transport themed playground - there are simulated train tracks, trucks built out of tyres and logs, bike and car rockers, tunnels and a bumpy grass ‘road’ perfect for running and jumping over. There’s a toddler tower and slide, swings and an upright rainbow wind pipe set for making music.

Most of the equipment is low to the ground but there are some more challenging pieces for older kids including monkey bars, mini rock climbing wall, a tower with larger slide and a balancing spring seesaw.

To top it off it’s set in leafy surrounds with shady spots for picnics, there’s a basketball half court and dogs are allowed off leash (away from the playground).

Mamma's special mention: If you’re looking for a family friendly meal, the Post Office Hotel is just down the road!
