The much-loved children’s character Bob the Builder is back in town and ready to attract a whole new generation of budding builders at Australian Open 2017.
Little fans attending the popular tennis tournament with their families can meet the hat-wearing, hard-working Bob the Builder and his vehicle friends at a special interactive zone, the AO Ballpark, a new area especially designed to keep kids’ entertained during tennis breaks.
Children can have their photos taken with Bob and friends, build with foam bricks in a special ‘building zone’ and take part in a range of craft activities.
New in 2017, the iconic ‘Bob the Builder Theme song’ will be relaunched in a special unveiling to kids attending the activation zone on the day. Kids can show off their dancing at the ‘green screen’ dance party. Bob and his friends will be there to help kids learn the new ‘building’ dance moves.
Promoting values of teamwork, learning and construction, the Bob the Builder Interactive Kids’ Zone will be open from 14 to 27 January 2017 (excluding 15 January).
