“He definitely loves it, doesn’t he?”
That was mum Renee Billett’s observation as her son Leo, 5, ran up and down the stairs on Friday night taking multiple turns on the hydroslide.
Donned in a red rash vest and yellow life jacket, Leo was all smiles for The News’ camera.
Renee and husband Alex were among a large group of parents who brought their children to last week’s Friday Family Fun Night held at Selwyn Lane’s Livingstone Aquatics Centre.
“It’s great fun,” Alex – who also gave the inflatable obstacle course a go himself – said.
“It’s something we can do a whole family which gets us out of the house, and the kids off devices for a while.
“Plus, it might tire them out and they’ll have a sleep in tomorrow,” he smiled.
Another parent, Mel Brown, also brought his kids Caitilin, 9, Emma-Paige, 7, and Braydon, 11, along.
“We’ve been coming since before Christmas, they love it,” he told The News.
