Tarr-Coyne Wild West Playground

Hippo sculptures around a pretend river, with play canoes and small climbing mounds sized for toddlers and preschoolers.

Treehouse-style climbers for bigger kids, and a separate toddler area across a little bridge.

A pretend archaeology dig and a tactile art wall in the learning center, so your kid gets hands-on before the galleries.

A tall wooden climber with nets, bridges and fire poles at the foot of the park's highest rock, steps from the natural history museum.

Pyramid-like climbers, slides and a sandpit right by The Met, so the Egyptian wing can end with your kid on top of a pyramid.

Built for ages 0 to 6, with a mural wall to paint on and play spaces where your kid can touch everything.
