Brisbane Kids- the official guide to child friendly brisbane

  • AboutBrisbane Kids Creative was created by me! Ngaire Stirling. I wont pretend to talk in the third person about myself, instead let me tell you a bit about me and how 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came about. At the time the domain name 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came up for purchase I was a stay at home mum in the middle of a degree centred around journalism and PR. a couple of years earlier I had been contemplating returning to my previous career in marketing management and for a while I even tried. 3 months into a new role and it was clear that I had no passion for my old life and to make the decision to quit easier, my almost 2 year old at the time was not coping with childcare. So, as a family we made the decision for me to return to becoming a stay at home mum. About 1 years later or so.. 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came up for sale. My friends had often commented on my ability to know exactly what was happening in Brisbane for kids. I had my son enrolled in some awesome activities and we often visited some great destinations. I loved finding fun things for us to doโ€ฆ

Well known for its brilliant coffee, Beans on the Green is extremely popular with mothers groups and familiesย who love to spread a blanketย out on the grass and eat picnic-style.

What’s On The Menu?

Cafe in Bardon

For the Kids

Although there is not a designated kids menu to peruse there is still plenty on offer for the little ones at Beans on the Green. ย Baby chinos, hot chocolate, kids-sized milkshakes, smoothies, slushies, juices, frappes and iced drinks are all available as well as cupcakes, muffins, muesli, cakes, ginger bread, cookies, croissants, toasties, toast and sandwiches options as well.

Food Vans on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights

Bardon Bowls Club regularly invites different food trucks along on the weekend afternoons to add a little something extra to your family experience. ย These may differ, as can the days the come on so make sure you check out their Facebook page for which vans are coming when!

Kids Play Options at Beans on the Green

Kids inflatable play area

Its not just the great coffee and yummy food that is drawing the crowds – the cafe’s child friendly approach is a big winner for the local families and mothers groups too. The huge expanse of green grass is perfect for laying one of the supplied blankets out on under a shady tree or umbrella as parents can set up a picnic of sorts while the children run around them. ย This space is also easilyย visible from the seating area and safe from any roads.

The cafe also provide toys, books, colouring-in books, games, shade, mats to play on and mates to play with.

Kids Can Now Bowl Too!

Soft kids play lawn bowls set

Just new to the Bardon Bowls Club is the fact that young children are now invited to have a game of lawn bowls too! ย For kids wanting to join in they now have new light weight rubber bowls sets that come complete with mat, jack, 4 marker cones & 6 bowls, not forgetting the carry bag. ย How awesome is that?

Other Child-Friendly Services Provided

Families having a picnic
