'The Lake Macquarie Variety Playground (LMVP) located in Speers Point Park on the northern shores of Lake Macquarie, NSW, is designed to cater for the needs of children of all ages and all abilities, to ensure that everyone can play and interact together.’ There's an 8 metre high slide, 2 long flying foxes, large and small bike tracks and best of all for the parents and friends... a Cafe on site! Kids from all over the area have embraced this playground and the day I was there, there must have been close on 1,000 children climbing, sliding, running, bouncing, jumping... all over the place!! The best part of all is that it's FREE!!
