About this place
Folsom's sports park, wrapped around the aquatic center, with playgrounds between the fields and a trail that joins the bike path. Great if a big sibling has a game.
How kid-friendly is it?
Nearby places
Open trampolines, air bags, dodgeball and dunk lanes in Folsom, better for bigger kids who can handle the crowd.
A mini pretend town modelled on real Folsom shops, with an espresso bar for the grown-ups. Kids one to ten run the town while you drink your coffee hot for once.
Folsom's library, with a picture book room and drop-in story time for little ones, a short walk from the zoo and the mini train.
A miniature steam train that has been looping through City Lions Park since 1970, right around the Folsom zoo. Ten minutes of pure joy for a train kid. It doesn't run in the rain or on the hottest days.
A sports park with a very Folsom twist: a replica gold-rush mining flume that pours into a shallow creek kids wade through in summer. There's a playground too.
Folsom's Gold Rush history on Sutter Street, small enough for short attention spans. Pair it with a walk down the old street.
