I have been going to this play centre for a few years now and my son always enjoys it. The kids birthday parties are also good value.

Approximate cost: $3-$9 per child

Kidz city is the best play centre in our area. It is VERY clean. We have been many times and my kids love it. We have been with play group too and all the other mums love it too. Only problem you can't take food in, but it's a business so I understand. We had my sons party there and the owner was very helpful with the organising. Value for money for sure. Will be back soon.

Approximate cost: $140.00

I've been to Kidzcity three times with my mother's group and other friends with kids. The centre has lots of great stuff for older kids but my focus was on the under 3 play area as my son is only 18 months old. It is a good sized area and if you are early enough it is possible to get a table adjacent to the play area so that you can see the kids. It does get busy and of course you do need to supervise the young children quite closely as they can be rough with each other and adults sometimes need to intervene. It is disappointing when other parents put their children inside the gate and just leave them to it and that does happen. The coffees and hot chocolates etcetera are good. You can get some basic meals and snacks there but food is not the main focus of the place so it's pretty basic. Their policy is no food should be brought in but they turn a blind eye to the basic toddler snacks like sultanas, cheese slices, little biscuits etc. They did object one day when I took in some bread for my son because they said they sell sandwiches. I thought that was unreasonable as, given his age, I cannot be sure how much if any he would eat of a sandwich made with different bread to what we have at home etcetera. However, I will just be more discreet next time and not wave it around as their main concern was that it would set a precedent that it was ok to bring your own lunch.

Approximate cost: $7 entry for under 3s (plus food, coffee etc)
