Things to do in Perth For Kids
I don’t have kids of my own, but I have a small army of nieces and nephews and I’m regularly the one keeping them busy. Every place in these guides is somewhere I’ve actually taken them, with the things that matter when you’re the adult in charge: parking, shade, toilets, coffee and how long it will realistically hold their attention.
The beaches, Kings Park and the free water playgrounds cover most weekends. Perth Zoo, Penguin Island and Hillarys are the big days out, mini golf is my rainy-day fallback, and in summer it’s the outdoor cinemas, Christmas lights and twilight markets the kids ask to do again.
