The Wegerzyn Gardens Metropark is a garden park in Dayton with a fun Children’s Discovery Garden.
Children's Discovery Garden is open from April 1 – October 31, 10 am – 8 pm and November 1-March 31, 10 am – 4 pm.
This is the perfect summer activity! It's free, it's water, it's all play! Kids absolutely love it! And it's soooo pretty too! There are numerous play stations that teach kids about different aspects of growing and gardening and flowers and plants of all kinds. LOVE this place!
Can't say enough good things about this park! Where to begin? It's free. Very kid-friendly, since there is a special garden just for kids. Our daughter loved the watering station--there are a bunch of watering cans set up by an old-fashioned water pump. Our daughter loved filling the watering can and then helping the plants!
This downtown Dayton gem was developed for children 3-11 years old. It features splash type water play areas (a man-made river and a waterfall), a play house, a pond, sand tables, gardens, and a musical maze.
It has everything. It's one of my favorites in the Dayton area.
