“If you have a child that's at toddler stage this playground is okay. There is enough space for them to chase the ball, a bit of a walk, they have a slide, those beads and a swing fit for them. The other stuff is too big for those under 3. My son is easy to satisfy so its good for him.”

“Very nice playground in the middle of the park. Entry to the park is from various nearby streets and easily accessible by car or walking. The walkways are well maintained and clean. Public toilet is available on the entry from the Moore Street entry. The playground is well maintained and large. Various rides and a small book shelf is available. A section of the park has been curated to contain toys and a fun trail for children which makes it very interesting. Highly recommended for half a day's picnic with children or a short walk on the walkways.”
