The only kids entertainers who are more annoying than the Wiggles. And seriously what's with…read moreBarnaby the Busy Buzzy Bee? There's something untoward going on with that character. The Fairies store on Portrush road is actually the first one they opened after the TV show took off, and it caused quite a stir in 2008. Kids started having Wizard parties and Fairy Craft Parties and it was a big deal in the toddler rooms and kindergartens of Adelaide. My daughter did toddler fairy dance there a few times but quickly lost interest which was a relief considering how expensive it is. Cruelly, the main area at reception is filled with perhaps one to two million dollars worth of merchandise, all at toddler height so they can rip it from the shelf and threaten a huge tantrum if you don't buy them the sparkly pink magic busy bee antenna. Despite the expense you have to admit the kids love it, and if the kids heart something, there's plenty of parents ready to throw their dosh. But I was very relieved when my daughter outgrew them because quite frankly they were too pricey for this rainbow princess.

The very same second cousin who never has to deal with the little brat. Cruel, I know. But I'm sure we'll get along when he's older. Anyway, when I'm stuck with him I feel guilty setting him in front of the television or computer, and that guilt drives me to take him out where he can grow into a human being, and not a robot. I usually prefer to take him to outdoor places that don't hurt my wallet, but I'm afraid of the few universal truths in this world, this is one of them: nothing beats Kiddie Cove. I think I get about as excited as the children do. The colours, the characters, the activities... it's really quite spectacular. If you suffered an unwanted pregnancy, or are burdened with a child not of your own blood, take them here and leave them here. If you really like the child, or have obligations to your godfather, take them here for a little while, and you'll bring them back brighter than they went in.

Very reassuring to see this business doing the right thing. The huge slide is a bit hard on the rear when assisting a youngster down. Solo older kids 6+ wouldn't care, I'm sure. It makes me wish I was 20 years younger as I followed my toddler around the padded maze! There is a seperate 'under 3's' section that my under 2 doesn't find overly interesting, as the climbing area is too difficult for her and even the small slide is too difficult a climb. In honesty, this was a poor design and should be redone at some stage. It doesn't count as a star loss though, as the usability of the rest of the huge play area means this is moot. Coffee and food is very good quality, but usually a bit slow to come out when things get busy. They would be smart to reduce the huge menu and do fewer options more efficiently. I have found the staff to be polite and accommodating. I see a poor review due to offence taken over being told to not drink bottled water bought in. This must be tricky to police as many kids use no- spill bottles that may well be filled before entering. Places like this make their $ from selling munchies and drinks after the entrance fee is paid. While the staff member may have been gruff, visitors would be well advised to go with buying drinks and food and don't bring anything in. This will avoid conflict and is the right thing to do for the long term viability of these types of businesses. So, any of my criticism is somewhat petty and largely irrelevant to enjoyment of the facility. Be sure to ring and book, it's a popular place!

As soon as we paid (a reasonable $6) and walked through the door she was off running up and down. There were a very reasonable amount of tables and chairs for adults and a massive play area for the children. We missed the train ride due to times so I cannot comment on that but it looked great and is only $2 per child. The cafe part was priced well and my soy cappa was lovely. Boo and I both got snack plates and shared dips which she loved and hubby had a burger which he enjoyed. The play equipment seemed clean, and well kept and we all enjoyed our time there. They do parties which are priced well and the party rooms looked great. All staff were friendly, dishes were cleared quickly and they were keen to help in any way. We will be back.

We came to the indoor sports centre to visit their Inflatable World area (so that's all I am…read morecovering in this review) Apparently sometimes there is a line up to get in as they can only have a certain amount of people in the areas at once but we arrived with no line up and straight into the under 5's area. Entry was $7 for our baby and nothing for us to supervise (we were allowed in and to help her down things etc as shes so little. Usually the sessions are 2 hours long but as we were there in the last session and they weren't busy we were allowed to stay as long as we liked. The under 5's section has 4 main inflatable areas, one big farm jumping castle which Boo didn't go on as it was walled and we couldn't see her inside it, a globe jumping castle with slide, a basketball inflatable 'court' and a smurfs inflatable area with slide. They also had an area with big blocks etc to play with. Everything is quite safe and well placed that i wasn't concerned at all (except when she fell sideways down the slide but SHE loved that!) Boo had a ball and played so much she was exhausted when we left. The adult/big kids areas looked like a blast too and its great that they cover all ages so anyone can have fun. They have an indoor cafe and toilets etc for convenience. They take credit cards (except AMEX) and cash. There are also benches for the adults to sit and watch if they like or you can sit in the cafe area.

The age group in this place is one to twelve years: there are twelve year old pubescent boys hammering full throttle down the same slides as toddlers. It's like a social experiment, or an episode of the Kardashians. What's going to happen? Who's going to cry? Who will poop their pants? The kids move so fast they're just a blur of brightly coloured hysteria. It's ten dollars per child to get in, not including the eight dollars fifty you have to pay for a little bowl of wedges. That's right, eight dollars fifty! A lot of parents like the madness and the noise. Being able to hold an adult conversation in the midst of this sort of chaos makes them feel empowered. I am not one of them. I'll develop my child's gross motor skills on a backyard trampoline, thank you very much.

In an attempt to kill some time before a movie which we were early for (okay, we were actually LATE for the early screening so now had to attend the later one...) Intencity was the number one choice! Packed full of arcade games of yesteryear (well okay, from the mid 2000s) Intencity was the number one choice for the coolest kids party back in the day. Now, most kids have cooler games plugged into their TVs at home. The boys were occupied with a shooting game for a while - good value for $2 and then I took one of them on in a game of Air Hockey - great fun and it lasted for ages as the machine wasn't picking up every score!! Free game time FTW!!! It was at this point that we decided to try and win 'tickets' from the machine. We tried to dupe the machine and get as many tickets as we could but after spending $10 between three of us we only had enough to get 2 fun sized mars bars or 10 minties. Unfortunately many of the games were out of order - I was super keen to have a dance battle, and show off my 90s Brittany style dance moves - but I couldn't do that, partially because of the machine not working and partially because I have no moves. In fact, I'd say about 50% of the machines had an out of order sign and for that reason, points have been deducted!
