Nearby places
A one-room neighbourhood history museum. Adult subject matter for the most part, and the walk in is the tricky bit with young kids.
Made for preschoolers, with small bright play structures and a little train with two cars to climb into.
A compact nature themed playground with custom climbing structures and plenty of seating around the edges.
A compact play area with swings and a slide, plus a basketball court and clubhouse that runs year round programs.
Wide, quiet galleries near Civic Center. Doable as one floor and out again, and there is room to push a stroller through every room.
Free to enter, with an indoor grotto, waterfall, tiny fairytale hut and rooms that feel more fantastical than a normal art museum.
