This childrens farm is amazing - one of the best I have ever been to. Its got a really big car…read morepark, then you enter the farm over a bridge and are surrounded by play areas and walks. There are three main play areas - one for older children with big climbing frames to play on and in - one shaped like a horse is always a big hit! There is a sand pit in the middle great for younger children if you have older ones on the play equiptment. The second play area is for under 6's and is full of little houses which my little ones love, running in and out of the houses. There is also a play barn with straw - which is a bit annoying as the children come out covered in it but they have loads of fun! There is a large picnic area with a few lovely climb on statues, and chickens and ducks wandering around. There is also lots of walks and well signed routes around the farm, along the river and through fields. In the warm weather there is a river to paddle in. In the summer they have tractor rides - a pound each but always a hit! Animals - they dont have many but they have enough to entertain young children - a few pigs, cows, sheep, donkeys, and a little petting area with rabbits, peacocks and chickens. Really the main emphasis is on playing so teh animals are more of a sideline i feel. There is a restaurant and a cafe which is ok, fairly standard fair and not excellent but does the job. There is also a butchers and a bakers - lovely good quality meat. All in all a nice afternoon out - busy in school holidays but very quiet in term time. Its a £2.50 donation each - they leave it to you to put it in the tubs around the farm. Closed on a monday.

It's a sort of jungle gym. with slides, tubicular twisty things and lots of balls to land on. There is a section for under a certain age, but otherwise you've got a mix of two year olds to around six. Disastrous. If I ever left my daughter while I sat to chat to another parent, she would sooner or later come out in tears. If I stayed in there with her, I seemed to perpetually need to free her from the grasp of another child or repeat 'Please don't do that to my child' like a record stuck in a groove. Daughter is too big now, and has plenty of interests elsewhere. Oh relief! It is rather expensive, and costly in socks too as they have to remove their shoes - small mercy. A good idea, but needs refining

I came in with a friend during a weekday afternoon and we felt like we were out of place not having a child with us, but I can see why this place was overtaken by kids. It is a great opportunity for them to learn more about animals and for the parents to take a little break while their kiddos are running around with others. Really all the visitors except us were parents with children. If childless like us, you can easily run through the whole place within 25 minutes while getting some cuddles in with bunnies and goats. You can be out within half an hour if you don't arrive around the time when they have some of their special program going on (such as milking a cow, brushing ponies etc.). We were not lucky enough to catch those but it still was nice to see the farm. However, I would not return for the price. I would definitely recommend this spot for parents or nannies that are looking for entertaining their children. Cheers!

For a reasonable subscription this magazine is quarterly and delivered to my daughter. Every year she gets a new badge promoting her in a life boat crew.

Whenever I drive along the Hole Bay Road, and my daughter is in the car, I always get her to count how many lifeboats she can see.

Next to Scaplen's court is the Poole Waterfront museum. Having only recently re opened after a huge redevelopment this is the home of the Poole longboat an iron age longboat which was found off the coast and has been preserved. As well as the long boat there is plenty to see from old shops laid out as they would have been in the years past to the stories of the smuggling that took place many years ago and that Poole is known for. There is also areas dedicated to the town as it is now with videos on sunseeker one of the towns biggest companies. There are plenty of car parks within walking distance and you are a stones throw from the quay itself. I am not sure of the cost for entrance as Poole residents get free admission but it is always good to know about the town you live in and The Poole water front museum does that.
