Looking for a park to take your kiddos to in the afternoon or after school? Look no further! has so much shade 🙌🏼

I love a good modern style playground that has both basic park elements as well as obstacle style features. With having a two and a four year old it’s important to find a playground that both kids can enjoy! This did that 🤩

I know many families try to squeeze in as much time together as they can before going back to school and North Landing Beach Camping Resort has become one of our family traditions. I’m not going to go into detail about the campground itself but I do want to showcase the play areas for kids. I hope you enjoy seeing what this local getaway has to offer!

THIS park! If you’re ever in the area I highly recommend you making a stop at ! My boys loved it and didn’t want to leave. The tall slide and tunnel were the hit! It’s about half a mile away from North Landing Beach Camping Resort and 15 min away from 😲

Free Indoor play area for littles and great place for new walkers! I know it seems like malls are fading but I’m a fan of indoor malls; call me nostalgic or call me playing it smart on rainy days and hot days! I especially love when they have a play area for little ones to enjoy when they can’t play outside due to heat or rain. Not going to lie I was even a mall walker when my baby was born in winter 😂

Partial shade is better than no shade 🙌🏼
I love when trees are around a playground that’s when you know you’ll get some type of breeze and shade. is another great find for toddlers! Lots of walking space and things to do throughout the playground.
