Musical play, climbing and open space at Peckham Blvd, Baldivis.

Nestled in the heart of old Baldivis is a wonderful play park and grasslands to be discovered. There are lots of farms and tree lined roads on route to the play park, making you feel like you are going on a country adventure. The play park itself is fairly small however, there is a great variety of play equipment and a fantastic large open grass space.

The play area is divided into two areas on different levels. 

At the top their is a fantastic double cubby house with a climbing rope bridge between them and ladders either side. There is also a spring board and a rope climbing hammock in this top area, as well as a water fountain and benches. 



   








To get down to the lower section and the grassed open space, there are a couple of options! You can either meander down the winding path and take a musical journey. 

Or slide down/climb down....the choice is yours!

               

The musical pathway is so much fun, there are giant pan pipes to play and samba drums to beat, the acoustics are great. These instruments give the play park something different making it worth a visit, it's really quite liberating making noise outside!







The slide goes straight down into the lower play area and has a climbing wall that runs down the side of it. The climbing wall is a great feature and use of space providing hours of fun climbing up and sliding down. 

The play area has been well thought out with different levels, play equipment and areas to explore. 

       
On this lower level there is also a large spinning wheel and birds nest swing before it opens out onto the large grassed area.


 

The open space here is really worth a visit for a family game of soccer, cricket or a kids birthday party - this is really a great space to run around or have a pic-nic in. 

               

There is plenty of on-road parking around the edge of the park, however there are no toilets, pic-nic benches or covered areas. There is a water fountain and there are a few clusters of trees which provide an ideal shady area, perfect for morning tea.

The park is easy to find situated on Peckham Blvd, off Eighty Road in Baldivis. Google map reference: www.google.com/maps/place/32°21'33.2%22S+115°47'59.9%22E/@-32.359222,115.799965,15z

Take 5 Ice Cream Parlour - Baldivis Square Hot day? Take 5 and go get some ice cream from Take 5 Ice Cream Parlour in Baldivis Square, it’s truely delicious! We went along to check it out and now understand why the locals queue up outside this ice cream shop, it’s just the best ice cream.   We couldn’t choose which flavours to try they all looked so good. We eventually decided on the Ferrero, their current sell out ice cream. Salted caramel with swirls of real caramel, Bounty for the coconut lover, Banana and Nutella (my absolute favourite) and a scoop of Strawberry Sorbet for our little Miss and we were not disappointed!
