Kiwanis Park, London

Located in London’s south-east end on Kiwanis Park Drive, Kiwanis Park is a large park with lots of green space for playing, two baseball fields, a community garden (plots available through the city), paved pathways for nice walks or wheeling your way around the park, a splash pad and a playground that is good for all ages.

This park has a playground with a toddler play structure and one for the bigger kids. There is also a new splash pad, swing set (standard, baby and accessible swings), basketball court, baseball diamond and lots of green space.

Waterworks Park – St. Thomas

We were in serious need of updated family photos (our youngest just turned 2 and we have no family photos with her, oops!), and last night we finally got around to it. Our photo session was at a lovely spot near Waterworks Park in St. Thomas, so once we were all finished posing and saying cheese we decided to head to the park to let the kids play.

This park is a triple threat for family fun. Not only is there a very good playground and a splash pad, there is also a beautiful trail through gardens with bridges over ponds that is great for a mini nature walk adventure with the kids.
