CONNAUGHT PARK PLAYGROUND
OMG you guys, this playground is FULLY fenced in. That’s right. As long as your kid doesn’t know how to open those metal fence gates, you can sit back, relax and let your kids loose. Located right beside the Kitsilano Community Centre and Ice Rink, this playground has two play structures meant to separate older and younger kids. Plenty of extra seating can be found around the deliciously coloured water park which was redone in 2020. The black rubber tiles in the toddler area are warping which can cause little kids to trip, but otherwise, it’s a *Fully Fenced* playground. What more could a parent ask for?
