## The list

1. [Livermore Community Park](https://ourplayday.com/places/livermore-community-park) (playground, Folsom). 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.
2. [Beals Point (Folsom Lake State Recreation Area)](https://ourplayday.com/places/beals-point-folsom-lake) (beach, Folsom). A Folsom Lake beach with a big grassy picnic area, kayak and paddleboard rentals and the start of the American River bike trail.
3. [BusyKids Play Town and Coffee Shop](https://ourplayday.com/places/busykids-play-town-folsom) (attraction, Folsom). A mini pretend town modelled on real Folsom shops, with an espresso bar for the grown-ups, for kids one to ten.
4. [Folsom Powerhouse State Historic Park](https://ourplayday.com/places/folsom-powerhouse-state-historic-park) (park, Folsom). The 1895 power plant that first lit up Sacramento, with the giant old generators still inside. Best for school-age kids, and a short walk from Sutter Street.
5. [Lembi Community Park](https://ourplayday.com/places/lembi-community-park) (playground, Folsom). 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.
6. [Folsom Public Library](https://ourplayday.com/places/folsom-public-library) (library, Folsom). Folsom's library, with a picture book room and drop-in story time for small kids, a short walk from the zoo and the mini train.
7. [Castle Park](https://ourplayday.com/places/castle-park-folsom) (playground, Folsom). A castle playground rebuilt in 2026 with the turrets and the dragon slide back, a toddler area, a big-kid side and swings built for kids of all abilities.
8. [Folsom History Museum](https://ourplayday.com/places/folsom-history-museum) (museum, Folsom). Folsom's Gold Rush history on Sutter Street, small enough for short attention spans. Pair it with a walk down the old street.
9. [Altitude Trampoline Park Sacramento - Folsom](https://ourplayday.com/places/altitude-trampoline-park-folsom) (park, Folsom). Open trampolines, air bags, dodgeball and dunk lanes in Folsom, better for bigger kids who can handle the crowd.
10. [Folsom City Zoo Sanctuary](https://ourplayday.com/places/folsom-city-zoo-sanctuary) (zoo, Folsom). A small zoo for rescued animals that can't go back to the wild.
11. [Folsom Valley Railway](https://ourplayday.com/places/folsom-valley-railway) (attraction, Folsom). 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.
12. [The Square at Folsom Pioneer Village](https://ourplayday.com/places/the-square-at-folsom-pioneer-village-folsom) (attraction, Folsom). Gold-rush-era buildings, a blacksmith shop and a caboose kids can climb into, all outdoors.
13. [WonderPlay Zone](https://ourplayday.com/places/wonderplay-zone-folsom) (indoor play space, Folsom). An indoor play zone for imaginative, active play, with a co-working space where grown-ups can get some work done while the kids play.
