    Hi what about ameaznthings inPhillip Island. My children wen tthere the other day witht heior Family day care worker and they loved it. There are mazes drop slides for certain ages and heaps of other things as well. I myslef have never been and not sure about the cost but here is the link to the site! www.amazenthings.com.au  check it out it looks like lots of fun! Also in the warmer weather at night the penguions are excellent to see bobbing up and down on the waves coming in to shore I have just lookes at the website and it is about an hour and 15minutes from Cranbourne so depending on where you are coming from it may be longer time. It looks fantastic. Maybe this would be something for warmer day to go to amaze'n'things.

There is a huge adventure playground at Phoenix Park - a couple of minutes from Chadstone Shopping Centre which would be fun to take the young ones to.

Also the zoo is always a great outing for the whole family, although a bit expensive these days.

Other ideas are "one-off" events like "Pets in the Park" where we could enjoy the pet show and have a picnic/bbq afterwards.

 

Yes the farm idea sounds great i would be up for that. Kids love bowling, well maddy does he he there also this place that does childrens cooking classes sort of like the plaster fun house (remember that?) i stumbled across in when i was searching for party ideas. BBQ's are great i dont know any kid that doesnt like the park. There are some great indoor play centres around that cater for all age groups too, my mum took maddy to one that had kareoke!! she was most impressed.

happy birthday to
