Free things to do with kids in Fremont

A small, inclusive play space inside Fremont's huge Central Park: water play, sandpits, spinners, and climbers designed for all abilities, with Lake Elizabeth's pedal boats, train rides, and lakeside path all around it.

A compact, shady playground in Fremont's historic Niles district where the small footprint means you can actually see your kid the whole time - then walk the paved lake loop and browse Niles' antique shops and silent-film history.

North Fremont's favorite: two modern play structures (toddler and big-kid), an inclusive swing seat, a big netted climbing structure, and spinner seats kids can't get enough of. Rubber surfacing throughout.
