Tot Lot

Sand and water in the same spot — honestly, it’s a toddler’s dream come true. The sandbox here keeps little ones busy for way longer than you’d expect, and the running fountain right there means wet sand, which any two-year-old will tell you is vastly superior. Albany locals with kids under five tend to find this place pretty quickly and then just keep coming back. Bring a change of clothes, because they will get soaked.
