Stay at home and try some icey fun craft
Make one of these – my favourite is hiding the kids’ matchbox cars and dinosaurs in a icecream container of water. Freeze it and give the kids some salt water or safe kitchen tools and watch them spend hours trying to get their precious toys out!

Image credit: City of Playford This park is part of a nature reserve, with a small playground that includes a slide, spinner, swings and some cool climbing/balancing equipment Image credit: City of Playford It's a great area for a run around, kick of the ball or somewhere you can sit with the dog (on leash) while the kids have a play Image credit: City of Playford There's not many facilities around though, a bench seat and a rubbish bin is about it. No toilets or shade Thanks to Amy for this playground review 36 Seavington Road, Elizabeth Park[wpgmza id="138" cat="1" marker="559" zoom="16"]
