Where a card says no price or no hours listed, the venue does not publish it. We would rather leave the gap than fill it with a guess. Prices come from each venue's own website, and we publish one only when the figure appears on the page we took it from. Tell us if we are missing one you know.
Common questions about outdoor playgrounds in Phoenix
How many outdoor playgrounds are there in Phoenix?
We list 51 outdoor playgrounds within 30 miles of Phoenix, AZ. Every one is a published listing with an address we checked.
Which outdoor playgrounds in Phoenix publish their prices?
1 of the 51 here do, and each price was checked word for word against the venue's own page before we published it. The rest do not publish one, so their card says no price listed rather than carrying a guess.
Which outdoor playgrounds in Phoenix suit a toddler?
6 of them list an age range starting at two or under. Check the age line on each card, because a place that suits a six-year-old does not always suit a two-year-old.
How did Mini Navigators choose these outdoor playgrounds?
We list every one we have within 30 miles of the center of Phoenix. Each is a published place with an address we geocoded and checked, and the business can claim its listing to keep the hours and prices current.
Do adults have to pay?
It varies more than you would expect, from free to full price, and it changes the cost of a visit by a lot when there are two of you. The price on each card is what it costs to get a child in. 1 of the 51 on this page publishes a price at all, so call ahead about the adult rate before you rely on it.
Do I need to book ahead?
No. These are free and open, so the only thing to check is the weather. Where a venue publishes a booking page, the listing links straight to it.
What should I bring?
Water, sun cream and a hat. There is rarely shade or a tap. Whatever else you need is in the notes beside the listings above.
What else is there to do with kids in Phoenix?
Phoenix has 19 categories of kid-friendly places on Mini Navigators, from playgrounds and museums to splash pads and zoos. The Phoenix hub lists all of them.
