    ATTENTION PERTH PEOPLE:Things to do with a 7 and 3 year old

    Hi,
    My family is heading to Perth in May for my BIL's wedding, so we decided to stay a week seeing as though we were travelling across the country. DH and i were there about 4 years ago and did the kings park tram tour and city that included boat to Fremantle, saw the jail etc... We also did the Mint which DS#1 is interested to see.

    My question is, what else is there for the kids to do while we are there, some have suggested a koala park or the zoo. Free things would also be good. My other BIL's kids (8,4 and 1yrs) are going also, so even a nice park of play centre would be good.

    I have tried looking at websites but am having no real luck and just thought the locals may be able to shed some light.

    Thankyou in advance.
