Splish splash at splash pads
When the ocean is too intimidating for kids, there are always splash pads.
Ocean Beach Park in New London offers up its Kiddie Spraypark, for youngsters under age 8. The park asks adults to watch from the perimeter.
Nature’s Art Village in Montville has its own Splash Pad, which its website describes as a “zero-depth water playground.” In keeping with the dinosaur theme (this is the home of The Dinosaur Place, after all) , the site boasts more than two dozen features that have dino themes, including dinosaur water cannons and a spitting Stegosaurus.
Ocean Beach Park, 98 Neptune Ave., New London; (860) 447-3031.
Nature’s Art Village, 1650 Hartford-New London Turnpike, Montville; (860) 443-4367.
