Solandra Playground

The shade here is genuinely good — a mix of established trees that actually do the job on a hot Adelaide day, which if you’re local you know is not something to take for granted. There’s a bike track that keeps older kids busy while the littlies dig around in the sandbox, so it works well when you’ve got a mixed-age group. The BBQ area makes it a solid pick for a birthday party or a lazy Sunday arvo with extended family. Toilets on site too, which honestly bumps it up the list when you’re heading out with toddlers.
