checklistWhat to bring
via AmazonPop-Up Shade Canopy
Most pads have no shade at all — bring your own or there is nowhere to sit out the midday sun.
Water Shoes (Kids)
Splash pad concrete gets hot enough to hurt by afternoon, and the surface is deliberately grippy.
Reusable Swim Diapers
Nearly every pad requires them for babies and toddlers, and most have no shop on site.
Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50
Full sun, wet skin, and hours of reapplication — the one thing nobody brings enough of.
