Northcott Park Playground

If you’ve got a toddler or preschooler in tow, this one’s worth knowing about. There’s a climbing structure and slide that are sized just right for little kids — nothing too intimidating, which is exactly what you want at that age. The shade trees do a decent job of keeping things cool, and you can actually keep an eye on your kid without having to hover. That big open grass area next to the equipment is a real bonus — plenty of room for a kick around or just letting them burn off energy.
