The Best Playgrounds for Toddlers Around Adelaide

We asked our readers to tell us about their favourite playgrounds around Adelaide which are suitable for toddlers or little ones under 5 years old.

For peace of mind, we generally love fully fenced playgrounds for this age group and having some shade is always very handy.

Here is a list of the playgrounds that we have compiled from our own Play & Go reviews and readers’ suggestions that we feel are suitable for this age group.
