Children's entertainment in New Zealand

“A great playground! Loads of fun and spacious. Clean as well”

“I would give more stars if possible. We just had our sons birthday party there today and it was a blast. The party room was set up before I arrived, I was also able to arrive before the party to set up our theme decorations. The staff are super friendly and great with the kids. And all the kids loooooved running around and jump in the play area. I recommend to all who are keen. Amazing place will be coming back for more fun again.”

“Thanks so much for providing such great service Atria when I got my daughter's puffer jacket zip replaced. Louise Galloway from Dampier Bay Design who fixed the zip did an amazing job. It's so refreshing to experience such friendly, efficient and helpful service!”

“Always an amazing location! Plenty of space indoors and outdoors for any venue hire needs. The people who run it are wonderful, very helpful and skilled in running events.”

“Love how they have automatic ball dispenser, if that is what they call it. And so cheap. Not many people go here so it'll be a chill game and they are open until late afternoon. They have mini golf and different courses. They have a cafe too, I think they closes late too so you can enjoy beverages and foods until you had enough. The prices of their drinks are affordable too, I got a can of coke for 2.50 I think. You should try and go here. Golfing with good scenery is a bonus too.”

“Great day out at the twin peaks car show. Wether held up some great classics on display.”

“Friendly service, easy parking, open Saturdays, great card selection. Great shop to browse amd find a special gift.”

“So good to see and hear the fun all the kids were having . A very good place to visit to give the children a fun filled day”

“The team here support the local LEGO group, if you're after LEGO, look no further. On multiple occasions I have contacted them to express interest in yet to be released sets. They have taken down my contact details, set the item aside when stock came in, then called me back to let me know it's ready. Kudos to whatever system to they're using to keep track of these requests, as sometimes the products haven't reached NZ until months after my initial contact. To top it all off they even ensure you get your desired minifig in the blind bags. The prices can be a little higher than the likes of Kmart or The Warehouse, but it's worth it.”

“Hannah was exceptional, she was super friendly and helpful! Kids loved her, we will definitely be back :)”

“I saw the F1 movie in the DBox motion seats and I was emotionally overwhelmed. Whoever programmed the seat movements really put their all into it. It just be movie dependent but that was the single most immersive movie experience I've had in a long time. The movie itself was fine.”

“We celebrated my son 8th birthday here. Amber our host was so helpful and has made the experience pleasant and smooth. Thank you!”

“We have recently had our daughter’s 5th birthday at Launch Pad and it was fantastic! Having access to a child friendly space for the duration, being able to bring in your own food and drinks made it nice and easy. We were very pleased with the set up and ease for the party! They take care of the clean up as well!”

The kitchen at Joe's Garage Wigram takes a burger‑led path and lets the food speak. Music and pace keep a casual tone. Front‑of‑house runs with calm, helpful energy. Orders move at a steady pace. Buns...

The kitchen at The Old Vicarage Cafe, Restaurant & Bar takes a breakfast‑and‑brunch path and lets the food speak. Sweets lean classic and not overly rich. Breakfast plates are tidy and satisfying. The team keeps things friendly and organised.

Tai Tapu Hotel Restaurant, Bar & Function Venue keeps things coffee‑and‑cabinet and focused on flavour. Pricing lines up with the offer. Portions are generous yet well judged. Service stays present without fuss.

Links Functions and Events keeps things coffee‑and‑cabinet and focused on flavour. Morning service moves at a steady clip. The team keeps things friendly and organised. A coastal backdrop rounds out the stop.

“Awesome outdoor garden mext to Te Ara Atea Rolleston new library with various plants and small sculptures.”

“It was quite big and a lot room to move around”

“Dog here, this is a great little park with good spots for pee mail. There is a few things about but no lights. It is a long thin small park and can get busy there is a small pond too but the ducks do not want to be sniffed. Also something funny happens with the pond as it is only above leg depth on the ducks but I was swimming. Anyway apart from some stuck up ducks it is pretty social and safe down a dead end road and away from sports fields. Lights are not a problem for me I am black and my nose works in the dark. My owner spent about 10 minutes calling a tractor tyre called leo to him. I could not figure out why and eventually tapped him on the back of the leg to say the tyre is not coming. Boy did he jump, but that tyre must have been dead like I get when I see a rabbit, none here tho. Recommend will do again.”

“There are secrets to find in Matawai Park, Rangiora, if you are observant enough to find them.”

“Love this spot and so does my dog it's one of her favorite walks”

“Very attractive family park. It has a walking track lots of open sunny areas as well as shady. Great place to walk your dogs, jog or walk. It also provides clean public toilets.”
