This afternoon I am taking my kiddies to a spray pad, not sure which one. Any recommendations? There are no wading pools or spray pads in my neighbourhood so not sure which ones are worth the drive. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Not really interested in driving downtown and paying for parking. Looking for one in suburbia where parking is free!

You should take a bus. Or bicycle. Downtown. This driving thing has gone too far as has suburbia.

Around central park, there is free parking.

If you don't mind the drive..there's a pretty good spray park in St. Norbert too.

Check the 311 site, it tells you where all the pools & pads are in the city, and which ones are open or closed.

I love the "walk in/beach entry" part of the pool. the spray pad is okay but not enough pressure.

The KP one is great. Bored of the wading/sprayers? Then head into the pool.

I used to live close to the Vimy Ridge one. It's pretty decent. There's also a couple of play structures right next to it.

My 3 & 5 year old give two thumbs up to the Spray Pad at River Heights Community Centre.

St. Norbert is good. Right beside Farmer's Market on Sat. Do Both!

Dakota CC is by far the best in the city.

They're in small villages throughout the vast wastelands of the Niagra area I believe....at least the ones that I frequent.
