Playgrounds and things to do with kids in Beverly Hills

Two playgrounds, one for toddlers and one for big kids, next to a huge lawn for picnics, bubbles and scooter laps.

Separate play areas for ages 2 to 5 and 5 to 12, so toddlers aren't underfoot. A wide lawn and a jogging loop round it out.

Canyon trails above the city with a duck pond and a small lake. The half-mile Discovery Trail loop is sized right for short legs.

Terraced gardens, fountains and courtyards around a real movie mansion.

Pony rides and a petting zoo for the kids while you shop the produce.

Kids pick a piece of pottery and paint it at the table, then you collect it glazed and fired about a week later.

Shows made for kids, from storybook theater to bilingual music acts, inside a beautiful old post office building.
