Paying tribute to the Wallum Sedge Frog, the centre-piece of this ground-level playground is a specially designed rubber frog inspired by the endangered local frog species.
The Fun
The latest addition to Aura Estate’s playspaces, Frog Park is a treasure trove of frog-themed adventure. Central to all the fun is the giant, bright blue, green and yellow rubber frog with textures that allow for hours of endless discovery play. Young climbers will have a ball clambering over the top of this before moving on to the impressive twin KOMPAN embankment slides nearby.
Once they have exhausted those areas, kids will have a choice of the Crazy Daisy and Birdnest swing as well as test their balance and strength on the Supernova play piece.
A clear standout for this park though, and one of the rare finds that will engage older children and teens as well, is the impressive green parkour course laid out at the park. Featuring different climbing elements, children can challenge each other as they bounce, climb, hang and balance through the circuit.
The Imagination Factor
Children will fall in love with the giant frog that raises high up from the central ground of the play area. Let their imagination run wild as they immerse themselves in the land of giant frogs and test their own Ninja Warrior skills on the impressive parkour course.
Special Needs
Aura Frog Park has wide open paths and is a low level playing area which makes it easily accessible for children of differing abilities. The birdnest swing is also a fantastic place for children to play and the soft ball base is ideal for all children to play and move around on.
The Aura Frog Park is an iconic ground-level playground for the Aura community that will be cherished for generations. Bursting with colour and play elements with substantial play value, this park is set to be a favourite amongst the Sunshine Coast community. Urban Play collaborated with Place Design Group, Eureka Landscapes and Stockland to bring this creative playground to Aura City of Colour.
