Splash pads give kids a chance to let loose and have fun
Sure, we all love a good pool day in the dog days of summer, but if you’re young, a sprinkler will do! Luckily, the Northland has four great splash pads where kids can cut loose and get wet for free. And Mom and Dad, I don’t think anyone will mind if you run through as well!
