Margaret Mahy Playground

(Translated by Google) Hello friends in Indonesia. If you are on vacation to Christchurch with children, take the time to visit this Playground. (Search for the address on Google maps, you'll find it!) Even kids from 2 years old to high school/college can play here. Just choose. There's no entry ticket...it's free anyway! If you want to try all the games available, give yourself 2 hours...to be satisfied! :-) My teenage children, who are now in 2nd & 3rd grade of high school, since 2014, really like coming here every year when we come for vacation (visit husband's family) to Christchurch. Maybe because in Indonesia there is no playground as big and cool as this Playground (and... it's free!), so every time they go to Christchurch they definitely ask to play here. Well, if you've played ... to forget the time. If it's not dark or it's not raining they don't want to go home! Oh yes, there are 4 toilets that are clean and don't smell. There is a time limit for using it... so other people get it too. Understandably if it's busy or crowded, wow, 10 people can queue outside! There are also food trucks here, so don't be afraid of hunger or thirst after playing. So... don't forget to bring your wallet. It's just...a bit expensive, so just bring drinks and sandwiches (or fish & chips) from home or buy them outside. However, if the weather is cold, it's better to buy hot drinks at the food truck there...the prices are almost the same as from the cafe. Hope you'll enjoy Margaret Mahi Playground and fall in love with it. Christchurch, Feb 2023 (Original) Hallo teman-teman di Indonesia. Jika liburan ke Christchurch bersama anak-anak, sempatkan waktu ke Playground ini ya. (Cari alamatnya di google maps, pasti ketemu!) Anak-anak dari umur 2 tahun sampai yg SMA/kuliah pun bisa main disini. Tinggal pilih aja. Tidak ada tiket masuk loh...gratis pokoknya! Kalau mau coba semua permainan yg ada, sedia waktu 2 jam lah...agar puas! :-) Anak2 remaja saya, yg sekarang sudah klas 2 & 3 SMA, sejak 2014, suka banget kesini tiap tahun kami datang liburan (visit husband's family) ke Christchurch. Mungkin karena di Indonesia tidak ada playground sebesar dan sekeren Playground ini (dan...gratis!), jadi tiap kali ke Christchurch pasti mereka minta main kesini. Nah, kalau sudah main...sampai lupa waktu. Kalau belum gelap atau belum hujan mereka tidak mau pulang! Ohya, tersedia 4 toilet yang bersih dan tidak bau. Ada batas waktu pakai loh...biar org lain kebagian juga. Maklum kalo lagi sibuk atau rame, wah bisa 10 orang ngantri diluar! Disini juga ada food trucks loh, jadi jangan takut kelaparan atau kehausan setelah bermain. So...jangan lupa bawa dompet ya. Cuma yah...agak mahal, jadi bawa aja drinks dan sandwiches (atau fish & chips) dari rumah atau beli diluar. Tapi, kalau cuaca dingin mending beli hot drinks di food truck yg ada disana...harganya hampir mirip lah sama dari Cafe. Hope you'll enjoy Margaret Mahi Playground and fall in love with it.
