Kid-Friendly Cafes In The West
Cafes can be great for a not-too-expensive treat in school holidays, especially the ones that have playgrounds in them or alongside. Here’s our list.
Parraparents is a terrific website with all the info on what’s on in Parramatta plus the best of local ki-friendly places and activities.
There is of course the excellent Facebook page Fun For Kids Western Sydney, a good place to find things to do.
