## The list

1. [Grange Park Playground](https://ourplayday.com/places/grange-park-playground-toronto) (playground, Toronto). Art-themed play zones next to the art gallery, so a museum morning can end with a climb.
2. [Riverdale Farm](https://ourplayday.com/places/riverdale-farm-toronto) (attraction, Toronto). A working farm with cows, pigs and sheep. It isn't a petting zoo, so the animals are for watching unless staff bring one over.
3. [Biidaasige Park Playground](https://ourplayday.com/places/biidaasige-park-playground-toronto) (playground, Toronto). A snowy owl stage, animal sculptures and a beaver-dam climber, with cableways and swings as well.
4. [Earl Bales Park - Jumpstart Playground](https://ourplayday.com/places/earl-bales-park-jumpstart-playground-toronto) (playground, Toronto). Ramps up the structures plus tactile and musical pieces, so kids who roll and kids who climb play together.
5. [Glen Cedar Park Playground](https://ourplayday.com/places/glen-cedar-park-playground-toronto) (playground, Toronto). Dinosaur-themed play with a fossil hidden somewhere in it, so there's a hunt as well as a climb.
6. [June Rowlands Park - Sharon Lois and Bram Playground](https://ourplayday.com/places/june-rowlands-park-sharon-lois-and-bram-playground-toronto) (playground, Toronto). A music circle kids can bang and play on, set beside the climbing equipment.
7. [Little Norway Park Playground](https://ourplayday.com/places/little-norway-park-playground-toronto) (playground, Toronto). A slide and climbers with planes and ferries going by, so there's always something to point at.
8. [St James Park Playground](https://ourplayday.com/places/st-james-park-playground-toronto) (playground, Toronto). Climbers shaped like food crates and oversized vegetables, so the whole playground plays at being a market.
9. [Underpass Park Playground](https://ourplayday.com/places/underpass-park-playground-toronto) (playground, Toronto). Play structures under the highway ramps, so there's cover overhead when it rains.
10. [Art Gallery of Ontario](https://ourplayday.com/places/art-gallery-of-ontario-toronto) (museum, Toronto). Galleries plus a hands-on center where kids make things. The center keeps shorter hours than the rest, so check before you go.
11. [High Park Zoo](https://ourplayday.com/places/high-park-zoo-toronto) (park, Toronto). Bison, capybaras and more along a short outdoor walk. Cars can't drive into the park on weekends, so plan to walk in.
12. [Royal Ontario Museum](https://ourplayday.com/places/royal-ontario-museum-toronto) (museum, Toronto). Dinosaur galleries, a walk-through bat cave and a play space with building blocks and light tables for ages three to eight.
13. [Toronto Zoo](https://ourplayday.com/places/toronto-zoo-toronto) (zoo, Toronto). Animal habitats laid out by world region across a big site, so plan on a long day and comfortable shoes.
14. [Centreville Amusement Park](https://ourplayday.com/places/centreville-amusement-park-toronto) (park, Toronto). A ferry ride out, then a 1907 carousel, swan boats and a log flume, with goats and ponies at the farm next door.
15. [Happy Kingdom Playground and Arcade](https://ourplayday.com/places/happy-kingdom-playground-and-arcade-toronto) (indoor play space, Toronto). Multi-level indoor play with slides and a ball area, for a rainy day when kids need to run.
16. [Hockey Hall of Fame](https://ourplayday.com/places/hockey-hall-of-fame-toronto) (museum, Toronto). The Stanley Cup itself, plus hockey games to play between the displays. You go in through the shopping concourse, not the old bank doors.
17. [Ontario Science Centre at Harbourfront Centre](https://ourplayday.com/places/ontario-science-centre-at-harbourfront-centre-toronto) (attraction, Toronto). Hands-on play for ten and under, a planetarium and a workshop of tools to build with, in its temporary home by the lake.
18. [Ripley's Aquarium of Canada](https://ourplayday.com/places/ripleys-aquarium-of-canada-toronto) (aquarium, Toronto). A moving walkway through a shark tunnel, and a pool where kids can reach in and touch the stingrays.
19. [The Village at Black Creek](https://ourplayday.com/places/the-village-at-black-creek-toronto) (museum, Toronto). Historic houses and working trades that show everyday life from long ago. Not every building is open on every visit.
20. [Toronto Railway Museum](https://ourplayday.com/places/toronto-railway-museum-toronto) (museum, Toronto). Historic trains and railway displays, so kids who love machines get to see the real thing up close.

## About this list

Every place here is a listing on Play Day, and a place is listed only when something positive is known about it for kids. Each listing carries the kid facts (high chairs, changing tables, kids' menus, wheelchair access) with the source and month of each. A list needs at least three places to exist.
