Fort Vancouver Playground

If you’re doing the Fort Vancouver historic site with little ones and someone needs a break, this playground is right there when you need it. It’s a no-frills setup — a climbing structure and some slides sized just right for the 2-to-6 crowd — but honestly that’s exactly what toddlers want anyway. Grab one of the picnic tables, eat your snacks, and let them run the open grass field until they’ve burned it off. It doesn’t get packed the way city parks do, which makes the whole thing feel pretty low-stress. Good spot to know about if you’re in the area regularly.
