Luschka has been at it again, scouring Pretoria for kid-friendly places where she can get a great coffee at the same time. Thanks Luschka!

Location and Setting
Jingle Jangle is located in Moreleta Park in Pretoria East. It's accessible from all major routes and pretty easy to find – there's a map here.
Jingle Jangle is set in a large area with beautiful bluegum trees and loads of activities for children. It's a perfect afternoon out, and even on the hottest of days, there's a cool breeze under those trees.
For the kids...

For the kids there's a costume shop and a stage for fancy dress – an additional fee applies for this. There are plastic 'motorbikes' and quad bikes (also additionally charged) on the riding circuit for older kids. There's also a play area with two climbing frames, a pole for sliding, a tunnel to climb through, a 'horse' to ride, a sandpit and swings.
Jingle Jangle's play equipment includes a trampoline and a bouncy castle as well as ride on toys such as dinosaurs, a Flintstone-style car and so on.
As with many other places in Pretoria, there's an animal farm, although it's really more of an enclosure than a farm :)
The children's menu has nice foods on it, and their chocolate and vanilla milkshakes are very yummy.
There are pony-rides on weekends and public holidays too.
For the adults...
I think about Jingle Jangle, and I feel relaxed.
I'm not kidding...For adults, there's really just the tea room – and if you don't want to be surrounded by children, there's a lovely separate enclosure too.
I love the outdoors area though. Shaded by bluegum trees, able to keep an eye on the little ones, and have a bite to eat, there's not much missing.

Their fruit juices are fantastic, as is the coffee.
Anything else?
There's plenty of parking and a car guard on duty.
The toilets are lovely and there's a small baby-change area. You can book the area for private parties, or bring your own cake, but for that there's a 'corkage' fee.
Final words
As I said, I love this place, and it's my favourite in Pretoria.
It's one of the most relaxing spots I've found and if you visit, you're likely to find me there!

Thanks for another good review, appreciate it!! It is a lovely place for kids, service and food not always up to scratch, but really a great place for kids and the setting under the trees are lovely and a lot of activities for kids.
These are great but my kid is really clumsy and bangs herself up a bit when we get out. She cant seem to walk anywhere. She has to run

if any of you live near Lakeland, check out this park it is beautiful!I love the outdoors area though. Shaded by bluegum trees, able to keep an eye on the little ones, and have a bite to eat, there's not much missing.
