There comes a time in a climbing career (if you could call it that) where the focus changes from the routes the individual can climb and becomes more about the routes their offspring can climb.

As I have been making the slow transition into this I am looking for information on climbing areas/outcrops/boulders that anyone in chockstone land have used/know of to teacher their kids the basics. Looking for locations in the upper Blue Mountains for weekend fun and would be really interested in places in the lower mountains that would be accessible for afternoon jaunts during daylight saving.

Criteria:
- Flatish kid friendly base
- Super easy rock faces that kids can achieve on
- Shortish walk (no more than a km)
- Not interested in the gym

I have some ideas but am looking for the holy grail!!

Happy for company if anyone is in the same boat.
