The short answer
For a childcare or early learning centre, plan on about $30,000–$60,000 for a toddler or early-years play space delivered and installed. A single freestanding piece added to an existing yard costs far less; a large multi-room centre with several play zones costs more. Every figure on this page is ex GST and indicative. The only accurate number is a fixed-price quote for your site.
| Project type | Delivered cost range |
|---|---|
| Single freestanding pieces (equipment only) | about $2,000–$10,000 |
| Toddler / early-years space | about $30,000–$60,000 delivered |
| Primary-school multi-activity system | about $60,000–$120,000 delivered |
| Council / destination playground | from about $120,000 — large feature playgrounds regularly exceed $500,000 |

What the equipment costs on its own
If you are comparing supply-only prices, these are our current list prices for toddler play systems. They are equipment only: freight, softfall, site works and installation are quoted separately, which is why a delivered project costs more than the equipment line.
| Toddler play system | Supply-only price |
|---|---|
| Toadstool Keep | $7,140 |
| Blossom Tower | $8,810 |
| Kate Play Unit (in stock, Quick Supply) | $15,120 |
| Junior Junction | $19,350 |
| Cloud Twin Towers | $25,240 |
| Tot Town | $58,380 |
| Tot Town Safari | $64,390 |
Kidzspace list prices, supply only, ex GST. Freight and installation quoted separately. November 2026.
Softfall for early-years play
Toddler ranges are built low by design, typically under 1.5 m free height of fall, which keeps the required softfall depth and fall zone modest under AS 4422. Surfacing is still priced per square metre of fall zone, so the size of the area matters as much as the equipment.
| Surface | Rate per m² |
|---|---|
| Certified mulch or sand | About $60 |
| Synthetic turf on shock pad | About $110 |
| Wet-pour rubber | About $160 |

What drives the price
- The size of the outdoor area and how many play zones it needs
- Which softfall you choose: loose fill costs least, synthetic turf and wet-pour are fully accessible
- Site preparation: levels, drainage and access into the yard
- Custom-designed equipment versus the in-stock Quick Supply range
- Optional extras such as shade sails, fencing and landscaping, quoted as separate line items
What's included in a Kidzspace quote
Every fixed-price quote is itemised and covers the equipment, compliant softfall surfacing (AS 4422), site preparation, delivery, installation by our own crew, and independent compliance certification at handover. Optional extras like shade sails, fencing and landscaping are quoted as separate line items so you can see exactly where your budget goes.
We'll turn around a free 2D/3D concept design within a week or two of your brief. Custom-manufactured equipment then typically takes around 10–12 weeks to build — our in-stock Quick Supply range skips that wait entirely. Installation itself usually takes 3–14 days depending on the scope. All up, most projects run 8–16 weeks from enquiry to completed installation.
