Mt Hawthorn scores new toddler playground at Braithwaite Park

One of Perth’s best nature playgrounds just got even better with a new toddler playground being completed at Braithwaite Park in Mt Hawthorn.

Designed for preschoolers aged one to four, the new playground has plenty of accessible play elements and a heap of space for parents with prams to move around.

Kids will find a cubby house, cafe play area, swings, sliding pole, bird’s nest swing seat, monkey bars, two slides and a bike track on softfall

The City of Vincent received feedback from local families through community consultation in 2023, with construction works being completed this month.

“Braithwaite Park is a prime destination for families with different-aged children,” said Mayor Alison Xamon. “The park was already home to a great nature play area for older children, and now there’s a brand-new space just for Vincent’s youngest residents to enjoy.”

“It also has more space between the equipment, making it more accessible for young ones to explore with their parents or guardians,” she added. “We’re proud to complete our upgrades at the park and encourage families to check it out.”

City of Vincent said that Birdwood Square (Perth), Beatty Park Reserve (North Perth), Edinboro Street Reserve (Mt Hawthorn) and the smaller playground in Hyde Park (Perth) were next inline for renewals.
