    Also, we have a FORZ pass (my parents' annual Christmas prezzie to the boys) so DH can take them anytime the wind moves them - and if they've had enough after a couple if hours, there's no great pressure to stay and get more "value" out of it. We've already gone to Melbourne and Werribee zoos once, and Healesville 3-4 times since Christmas. It's awesome value.

    You wont regret the museum

    We had an annual pass for the aquarium and that made the price worth it. My son enjoyed it more than the zoo when he was little as everything was closer and easier to see.

    The annual pass to the museum is well worth it too - it was $70 for family pass - and we have been 3 times to the museum and 1 to scienceworks, we got 2 free tickets to the Bond exhibit when got the annual pass which would have cost 22 dollars each so - we have easily made our money back in the 3 months have had it. It also gives you a discount on the parking underneath if you need it which is good (we went to the museum on a couple of those really hot days - so drove there instead of going on PT as would normally) - you also don't need to be going to the museum to use the parking discount - e.g. just the IMAX, or stuff on at the exhibition building.

    For Future Reference
    We have done Pollywoodside when DD was younger, I think they get more out of it when they are older (Entertainment book has voucher to bring cost down). Puffing Billy also has voucher in entertainment book as does the Aquarium which can make quite a bit cheaper.
