Entertainment for Small Children



The Gold Coast would not be the same without it's many theme parks.  With so many to choose from, it's hard to know which ones are better for the younger children, and some frankly are better than others.  Sea World is by far the best for the little ones.  The dolphin show alone will amaze them, but it is Sesame street Beach that they will love the most. The adventurous preeschoolers will love to ride the Vikings Revenge Canoe ride, and for the not so scared little ones they can enjoy the bermuda triangle ride. Ray reef is another of the many kid friendly activities at Sea World where they can touch the rays and view sharks in Shark Bay.

Dreamworld is a little less glossy and a little more commercial but still fun although the rides you can go on with little ones are limited. Watch the White Tigers and go and see the koalas and then head straight to Wiggles World to see Dorothy the Dinosaur, Wags the dog and Henry the Octopus in all their glory plus get in a big queue to ride on the Big Red Car (beware the unavoidable gift shop), visit a petting zoo and play in the adventure playground. Nickelodeon Central has dodgem car rides to enjoy, check out the vintage cars in the Australian section!

After days of Theme parked amusements, it may be time to take a drive to Lamington National Park where you should head straight to OReillys Rainforest Retreat in the Parks Green Mountains Section, where pram friendly boardwalks have been constructed throughout the rainforest. The Tree Top Walk, a series of swaying bridges suspended high up in the forest canopy is like something straight out of Indiana Jones and can fir a pram too. The botanical gardens are just near to the Tree Tops Walk which are fun to explore with the children and its all free!

Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary is another must see.  The main point of interest for the kids is the opportunity to cuddle with a koala, as well as hand feed other wildlife. The train ride and bird show are other great points of interest.  The list of animals here include crocs, dingoes, and massive snakes along with many more for your amusement.
