Coburg North is a vibrant community full of parks, recreational spaces and local events that are perfect for families. If you're spending a sunny afternoon at the playground or heading to a weekend market, these outings are a chance to have fun and build healthy habits. These healthy habits can even support excellent oral health and give you more years of enjoying a healthy smile.
Local Spots We Love
Start your adventure at Harmony Park, a local favourite with its wide open spaces, shaded playground and splash pad. The Merri Creek Trail offers a scenic path for active families to walk or cycle. Just down the road, the Coburg Leisure Centre is a hub of swimming, sports and school holiday programmes.
During weekends, don't miss the Coburg Farmers Market. It's an excellent spot for local produce, live music and community connection.
Smile-Friendly Tips for Family Fun
While you're out enjoying Coburg North, here are a few simple ways to protect your family's smiles:
- Stay hydrated — Always bring water, not soft drinks or sports drinks. Water helps wash away food particles and keeps mouths fresh.
- Pack tooth-friendly snacks – Cheese cubes, carrots and apples make great on-the-go snacks that don't cling to teeth.
- Time treats wisely — If you indulge in sweets, enjoy them after meals when saliva production increases, as it helps neutralise acids.
- Keep a travel toothbrush handy — It never hurts to brush on the go for long outings or overnight events.
