What about you take your kidlets to visit a pirate ship park? When we last visited a few weeks ago, Pirates and Peter Pan seem to be the “thing” in my house right now. (Can you tell from the pictures?) So much so that my little girl wanted to go to a pirate ship as Wendy.
I’m assuming that the seaside theming is due to the fact that the park is very close to the docklands – so hardcore boat-lovers can go and see the real deal afterwards too.
It’s a small suburban park but the play structure is just so cool !
There is a splash pond but won’t open until mid-July …boo!! When it’s not full of water though, my kids are still happy to use it like another play area. Especially because there are penguins to cuddle.
The park, itself, is cute, cute, cute. The surroundings? Not so much. Just grey and buildings. It’s very much an inner city park.
Take your own sand-play toys are the “floor” of the whole playground area is sand and also take hats and sunscreen as there isn’t a whole lot of shade. Don’t stress if you forget snacks and drinks though…there are about 10,000 (okay…actually 4) convenience stores on, pretty much, every corner of this park.
The park also has its own public restrooms.
It is four minutes walk from Shibaura Futo Station.
