Pixar Putt at St Kilda Foreshore

March 6 2019 By melbournemamma Leave a Comment

Kick some serious putt at Pixar Putt


A Disney Pixar-themed mini golf experience has popped-up in St Kilda and it’s loads of fun for all ages.

pixar putt course st kilda

Melbourne’s newest miniature golf course is inspired by everyone’s favourite Disney Pixar’s films, including classics like Toy Story, Finding Nemo, Monsters Inc, The Incredibles, A Bug’s Life, Wall-E, Up and Coco and more.

We were recently invited along to play the course and we had so much fun.

We’re a competitive bunch *fun times*, so we all play to win but I’m pleased to report that I scored not one BUT two hole-in-ones and took the victory!

Visitors can choose between playing a nine-hole round ($24.90 Adults, $19.90 Kids or $79.60 Families) or the full 18-hole course ($39.90 Adults, $29.90 Kids or $119.60 Families).

Tickets can be purchased at the course however, I recommend purchasing tickets online before you go.

25 low cost ways to entertain the kids

School holidays can be a drain on your wallet (AND also your patience LOL), so I’ve put together a list of 25 low cost ways to entertain the kids and stop them saying “I’m bored!” every five minutes.

Make these school holidays something to remember and enjoy the simple things in life.

  1. Visit the library
  2. Bake cookies
  3. Paint your nails
  4. Have a picnic
  5. Do a puzzle
  6. Game night
  7. Cook dinner together
  8. Watch the sun set
  9. Go to a playground you haven’t visited before
  10. Write a letter to a family member or friend in another state or country
  11. Camp in the backyard
  12. Go for a walk around your neighbourhood
  13. Paint or decorate rocks
  14. Plant some vegetables or flowers in the garden
  15. Organise to meet up with some friends for a bbq at a local park
  16. Write a story
  17. Create a treasure hunt
  18. Bake and decorate cupcakes
  19. Ride bikes or scooters
  20. Fly a kite
  21. Family movie night
  22. Build a blanket fort
  23. Chalk drawing on the driveway
  24. Wash the car
  25. A-Z scavenger hunt

Who knows, you may even enjoy a few of these yourself.

How do you keep the kids occupied during the school holidays? Let me know in the comments below.

Pretty Little Birthday Celebration

February 4 2015 By melbournemamma 2 Comments

We recently celebrated my daughter’s 7th birthday.

 

She wanted to do something “fun” and “creative” for her birthday, so we decided on a jewellery making party.

 

Originally I contemplated (for a nano second) running the party myself, but let’s face it – I have NO idea of what to do, so I decided it was best to look for someone who did. …

Cool Fun at Medibank Icehouse + Giveaway

January 11 2015 By melbournemamma 32 Comments

We recently headed to Medibank Icehouse at Docklands to check out their Under 8’s Ice FUN sessions.

 

I haven’t skated since the 80s and my kids have never done it before, so we were all excited and a little nervous (or maybe that was just me). …

After 10 weeks out with a pelvic fracture, it was After 10 weeks out with a pelvic fracture, it was amazing to see my boy back on the court last night doing what he loves. Your dedication to rehab and the patience you’ve shown have truly paid off. I’m so proud of you - 16 pts and 13 reb (+ a blood nose 🤧) is an incredible return! Can’t wait to see what the rest of the season brings 💪🏻🖤❤️🏀
