Why this futuristic indoor play centre is our latest obsession

Planet Mino is the futuristic Sydney indoor play centre that parents can’t stop raving about. 

“This place is amazing. A complete paradise for kids,” gushed one visitor.

“Seriously this place made me wish I was a kid again,” said another.

The Chatswood playground is best for kids 0-10 and is a participating Dine and Discover venue.

The massive two-storey playground is complete with a pastel ball pit, an augmented reality wall, slides, a walking bridge, swings, a climbing wall, trampolines and so much more.

Where technology meets play

What sets Planet Mino apart from any other Sydney indoor play centre is its augmented reality experiences.

Kids can take their play to the next level by testing their skills against interactive displays projected onto the wall.

They can use balls in the pit to earn points by hitting frogs, penguins and taking part in other interactive challenges.

All of the augmented reality experiences work in tandem with the play equipment. The idea is to encourage kids to take their creativity and imagination to new levels.

Something for everyone

Highlights at Planet Mino are the ‘volcano slide’, ‘space station’, ‘Princess Dome’ and of course the ‘ball pit sea. Plus there’s a netted walking bridge, a flat swing, two spinning seats, the hanging octopus, monkey hangers, trampolines and a climbing wall. 

The lower level provides a space for younger ones to play at their own pace with LEGO, a supermarket setup, a baby zone (for 0-2 years) and toys galore.

For parents, there’s an in-house café to grab a much-needed caffeine-hit and a snack while you watch the kids. Their menu includes banana bread, all-day breakfast, a kids menu and a lunch menu. As a bonus, they’re a completely nut-free centre.
