On Friday we headed in to the city for a special preview of the new Melbourne Ice Slide.
In case you haven’t heard, the heart of Southbank has been transformed into an action packed winter wonderland for the school holidays, as Eureka Skydeck hosts the giant Variety Ice Slide for kids, parents and the whole of Melbourne to enjoy.
From now until July 17, a thrilling 40-metre long, four-metre high ice slide has been set up alongside Southbank’s waterfront, allowing passers-by to experience the thrill of riding an inflatable tube on the exhilarating journey down the slide.
The kids loved racing down the icy slope and didn’t seem to care that it was about -100°C there. Ok, that might be slight exaggeration but it was bloody freezing on Friday.
Open daily from 10am until late, with prices starting at $10 for three ice slides, the Variety Ice Slide is sure to delight all ages and suit all budgets.
Eureka Skydeck, in partnership with Mirvac and Fuze Tea, will donate a portion of the funds to not-for-profit organisation Variety: The Children’s Charity. For more information visit www.eurekaskydeck.melbourne.

![As we celebrate Earth Day it’s important to remember that every step we make [no matter how small] to living a more sustainable and environmentally friendly life, the better this planet will be for future generations 🌏💚♻️
I’ve just started using this ECO cling wrap and ECO zipper bags, both made from sugarcane [and kindly gifted to me from @urban.ethos], so I no longer need to feel guilty about keeping my leftovers 🥗 and the kids lunches and snacks, fresh and sealed.
“I’m shopping for my grandkids” is exactly what we should all be doing, and actively making environmentally friendly choices when shopping for products for home, the kitchen and our families.
