As Funky Monkeys Bars gears up for a stylish week at Melbourne’s Flower and Garden Show we asked a couple of home style experts, “Why Funky Monkey Bars in the backyard?.”

A new study out this week has found the more play equipment you have in the backyard the more active your child will be, yet only one-third of all Australian pre-schoolers are getting enough exercise.

The Christmas spirit was sparkling on Christmas Eve when the last two of the three golden rungs in the Golden Rung Giveaway competition were found in Rockhampton in far north Queensland and Melbourne.

"Thank you for making our Christmas so special and giving that Charlie Bucket feeling. You shared the spirit of Christmas with us in such a memorable way and we are so grateful," said Melbourne Mum, Sarah.

We love to show-off our Funky Monkey Bars in all 16 fabulous variations, in eight magnificent colours because we are super proud of the products we make right here in Yangebup, Western Australia.  Come on down to the Funky Monkey Bars Open Day, Saturday November 10, 11am to 4pm and see for yourself, buy and pick-up or have delivered ready for the best family Christmas.  

In the spirit of Roald Dahl, Funky Monkey Bars is repeating its hugely popular Golden Rung Giveaway and has this year planted THREE golden rungs in boxes being delivered to three lucky customers before Christmas.

If you unwrap a golden rung you receive a full refund on the purchase price of your Funky Monkey Bar and in the words of Willy Wonka himself, “So shines a good deed in a weary world.” ...

When Mum of 8, including two-year-old quintuplets, Kim Tucci went looking for backyard play ideas that would keep them all entertained outdoors, she couldn’t go past The Gorilla by Funky Monkey Bars.
