Explore the new Discovery Zone, telling the story of the Australian experience of war at the Australian War Memorial. Crawl through a First World War trench, climb into a Vietnam War helicopter, explore the inside of a Cold War submarine and learn about peacekeeping at the memorial’s interactive Discovery Zone, designed especially for children.
Interact with monkeys, otters, giraffes, penguins, dingoes and more on the Junior ZooVenture Tour at Australia’s only combined zoo & aquarium. Kids can walk alongside native wildlife, and can even pat kangaroos and emus. Adults and bigger kids can hand-feed lions, tigers and bears on the ZooVenture Tour, and play ball with a cheetah on the Meet-a-Cheetah tour. Admission charge. Bookings essential for tours.
Freefall six metres down a vertical slide, experience an earthquake or see how fast you can throw a ball in the interactive Sports Quest exhibit. Go hunting with predators — from insects to sharks — in Eaten alive! Kids will love the zany science theatre shows, and the real littlies will never want to leave Mini Q, where they can play hide and seek in a spaceship.
Take a ride on the mini steam train around this delightful miniature village and tower over tiny versions of famous buildings from around the world. Watch the kids bring the exhibits to life with interactive mechanical animation and enjoy a barbecue, picnic lunch or meal at the Garden Cafe. Children also love to admire Waverley, the 34-room display dolls house at Cockington Green Gardens.
