Adventure Playgrounds in Melbourne
If the kids want guaranteed fun and excitement then head for one of Melbourne's Adventure Playgrounds. They can come in all shapes and forms but the classic Adventure playground is typically made of timber and built by volunteers from the community over a very short period of time. This compares rather favourably with the 100 years it took Noah to build the Ark! - and the Ark didn't even have a swing if you exclude the one in the cockatoo's cage.
