Seawinds Gardens is just a short two minute walk from the top of Arthurs Seat, located directly opposite the Enchanted Maze. The gardens are made up of a mixture of bushland and manicured gardens with a combination of both indigenous and exotic plants. William Ricketts sculptures are located throughout and there is also two look […]

We are so lucky to have access to such fantastic library facilities in the Frankston municipality. If you haven’t visited your local library for sometime then I highly recommend you do! Frankston Library is right in the heart of the city, an easy two minutes walk from Bayside Shopping Centre. Outside the walls are painted with […]

A sunny afternoon, the perfect opportunity to get the kids out of the house and into nature for a breath of fresh air. Hmm..what to do? Local park? A walk down the beach? I know! How about a treasure hunt! A Geocaching treasure hunt! We have always wanted to give Geocaching a try but to […]

Sure, it’s cold outside leading up to these winter school holidays and chances are it’s going to get colder. But when it comes to kids and being stuck at home, cabin fever is not an option and “I’m bored” is definitely not a line we as mums need to hear. Instead we need to plan […]

If you’re looking for somewhere in Victoria to take the kids this long weekend or perhaps somewhere to go for an extended stay in the school holidays then Mansfield is definitely one of those places that ticks all the boxes. We happen to have two high maintenance girls (2.5 and 5) who get car sick […]

Sandhurst or “Pleasantville” as I like to refer to it, is a quiet, lovely estate located north of Frankston not far from Carrum Downs. If you live here, then you are no stranger to the walking tracks, lakes, ducks, grassy nolls and the family friendly bike tracks. Another great feature of this estate is the […]

If there was ever a name that wrongly depicted an establishment, it is Commonfolk because Commonfolk Cafe is far from common. It’s vibrant, fresh, modern, hip and happening. And we love it! Hidden within the industrial estate of Mornington (and we mean hidden, if we hadn’t of known the exact address we would have driven straight […]

If you’re wondering what to do this weekend with the family, here’s your answer. We had a fabulous day recently at Montalto Winery in Red Hill. Invited for lunch for a friends birthday, hubby was playing cricket so I was a little hesitant about taking the kids to a winery by myself but I needn’t […]

We are now officially into the school holidays and we technically (not including the weekends) have another eight days ahead of us to try and think of ways to entertain the kids on their school break. Personally, I don’t really want to spend too much money so, weather permitting, we will be frequenting our Favourite […]

A few weeks ago we wrote about our Favourite little parks in Frankston. Well,  we have some more! We are truly spoilt for choice when it comes to great little places to take our children in and around the Frankston area and the newest addition to the neighbourhood is Jubilee Park Playground. JUBILEE PARK  ADDRESS – Corner Hill Street […]
