The Margaret Mahy Family Playground

The most playful place in Christchurch. My family really enjoyed stying here. It is located just beside the river we could watch so many birds and picnic area was absolutely fantastic. Every kids were happy and played together with smile. Lovely place lovely time.

What a great park to spend the day at , coin operated bbqs, fish and chip cart that are delicious , donut cart , ice cream cart . Great water play area for the warmer days . Close buy is a bike pump track and other cafes . Loads of parking .What a great spot on the central city .

What a great playground! So many fun and interesting objects to interact with. Great slides, including a three story spiral tube slide. There’s also a fun waterpark area where kids can pump water and manipulate where it goes. A great place for kids to have fun and explore physics.

No wonder it has such a high rating—4.8! A must-visit place for families with young kids. My children, aged 10 and 8, loved this place, and we ended up spending two hours here. We were tourists and stayed in New Zealand for three weeks, and this was the best park we visited. There were clean toilets and a few vendors selling snacks and drinks.

Impressive creation! This huge playground off Manchester Street is amazing. There are dozens of things to swing and climb up. My kids favourite is the double flying fox, because they can race each other. There are food outlets BBQs and toilets too.

The playground has many attractions like slides, swings, a sandpit, and a lot of toys to develop new skills like climbing, balance and others. It also has a water play area that's amazing! I really recommend it!

Love it, it does get busy though. The mini trampolines and slides are stand out. This park is fun for different ages. There is also flying fox & food carts within close proximity

Amazing playground for children. Really fun slides and zipline.
