Playgrounds for
grandparents
Find playgrounds that match both your grandchildren's age and your own pace. Shade, benches, toilets, and equipment that covers everyone from baby to school-age - so the visit is easy for both of you.
Grandparent visits have different requirements
When you have your grandchildren over for an afternoon, it's a little different from when their parents are out with them. You may want a bench instead of running between slides and climbing frames. Toilets need to be close, because nobody wants to carry a thirsty child 800 metres. Shade matters more when you're sitting in one place for an hour. And the equipment may need to fit both the 2-year-old and the 7-year-old who came along.
Legepladsfinder lets you combine all these filters in one search, and save your favourite playgrounds so you find them easily next time.
The most important filters for grandparents
Benches and seating
Find playgrounds where you can sit comfortably while the children play.
Toilets nearby
Invaluable with toddlers in potty training - or for yourself.
Shade
Natural shade or sun sails - invaluable on summer days when you sit longer.
Café or kiosk nearby
Extends the visit when kids need a break with a juice and a snack.
How to make the visit easy
Keep it short
30-45 minutes is typically perfect. Better several short visits than one long one. Kids under 5 tire quickly.
Over-pack
Juice, snacks, plasters, spare socks and a small toy bucket. More is better than less.
Use favourites
When you find a playground that works, save it as a favourite. Next time it's one tap away.
Let them choose
Let the grandchildren help pick the playground via the map. It builds anticipation and makes the visit feel like theirs.
