Playground

If you’re taking the kids to Pleasure Beach anyway, this little playground is worth the stop. It’s fenced in, which makes a real difference when you’ve got a 4-year-old who thinks they can outrun you — and they can. Swings and a climbing structure keep the 3-to-10 crowd busy while parents actually get to watch without chasing anyone into traffic. The beach is right there, so you can easily flip the day into a sand-and-surf situation once everyone’s tired of climbing.
