Redannick Playground

Tucked away in Truro, this is one of those local spots that actually gets looked after properly — and you can tell. The equipment is clean, nothing’s broken, and it feels safe enough that you’re not constantly hovering over your kids. Good for ages 2 through 12, so it works whether you’ve got a toddler or an older one who still wants a run around. There’s a football field right opposite, which is handy if you want to keep the older kids busy while the little ones do their thing.
