bedford st pocket park, north melbourne
/This brand-new park in North Melbourne is perfect for a day out, with lots of green space for picnics, ball games, or just getting away from the city's hustle. The playground isn’t huge but has climbing frames, slides, swings, and areas for water and sand play, which makes it great for toddlers.
There are no high structures, so it's quite safe for younger kids. It’s also partially fenced to keep little ones from running into the street, with openings leading to the park, footpath, and BBQ area.
The playground connects to another section with picnic benches and BBQs, making it a great spot for family gatherings or birthday parties.
The large lawn area has plenty of shaded seating, perfect for chilling out or reading a book. Plus, there are new trees and ferns planted throughout, and as they grow, they’ll offer even more shade, making the park even more inviting over time.
