PARK REVIEW

KOWHAI PARK FEILDING The new playground at Kohwai Park in Feilding has recently been completed so we went along to check it out. I loved that there was a carpark nice and close to the playground, which made it nice and easy to get everyone out of the car and to the playground safely. There are three big shade sails, a smaller fenced playground, and then a bigger playground with a flying fox. They are all

When the appeal of the playground had worn off, we sat under the shade sails right next to the playground to eat our morning tea, before wandering through the walkway and looking at the amazing fairy doors, castles, and mushrooms that have been painted and placed along there. We finished off at the duck pond where we were enthusiastically greeted by the ducks searching for some seed.

nice and close together so if you did have older children with you, it would be quite easy to supervise them on the bigger playground while also watching the young ones. With young children under 5 we spent most of our time on the smaller playground and I am so happy that there is now a fully fenced playground in Feilding! With multiple children this made it super easy to keep an eye on everyone. The playground has a good range of slides, steps, ladders & balance beams and my 2 & 3 year olds were quite happy exploring this on their own. We visited in the morning and it was already scorching hot, with not a lot of shade cover on the small playground so I would recommend packing sunhats, drink bottles, and sun screen! 12 PALMY PARENT .
