Free things to do with kids in Palm Springs
Victoria Park
Rebuilt in 2024 with a tot lot beside the main structure and a sheltered picnic area, so lunch can happen out of the sun.
DeMuth Park
A newer playground under shade canopies, split into an area for ages 2 to 5 and another for 5 to 12, so toddlers aren't dodging the big kids.
Ruth Hardy Park
A separate tot lot beside the bigger play structures, with the mountains right behind, so a toddler and an older sibling can both play in view.
Sunrise Park
Turtles that squirt water are built into the play structures, so bring a towel and a change of clothes.
Downtown Park
A splash pad with a water feature modelled on the Tahquitz Canyon waterfall, steps from the giant Marilyn statue, so it fits between lunch and the museum.
