Children's play areas

Dodo playground

The Dodo Playground overlooks our Orangutan Islands and is suitable for children aged 2-12. Let your little monkeys run wild in this enclosed outdoor playground as you sit and soak up the atmosphere, watching the orangutans swing by in the background. 

Indoor play area

If the weather isn’t so good, Café Dodo has a fantastic indoor play area with a wooden climbing frame, netting and slide, and a small soft play area for younger children. Why not sit and relax with a drink and slice of cake while your little ones play!

Sandpit

Let your little ones embrace their inner meerkat in the sandpit next door to our resident meerkat mob.
