Kiwanis Tot Lot #1

A Cozy Playground for the Little Explorers

Positioned in a residential corner of Kent, Washington, Kiwanis Tot Lot #1 is exactly what the name suggests - a charming little park designed with your tiniest adventurers in mind. If you're looking for a spot where toddlers and preschoolers can play safely without being overwhelmed by bigger kids and complex equipment, you've found your place.

Play Equipment Perfect for Small Hands

The playground here is specifically tailored for children 2-5 years old, featuring swings and slides that are just the right size for little legs and arms. Nothing's too intimidating or too high - everything's designed to help your child build confidence while developing those all-important motor skills.

We love that the area gets partial shade from the surrounding trees, which makes those summer playdates a bit more comfortable when the sun is blazing overhead.

Safe and Manageable Layout

One of the best features of this park is its fenced perimeter with two swinging gate entrances. If you've ever tried to keep track of an energetic toddler who's discovered the joy of running, you'll appreciate this contained space where they can explore with a bit more freedom while staying safely within boundaries.

The large grassy area gives kids room to tumble and play beyond the equipment. It's worth mentioning that the park sits near train tracks - a potential source of excitement for young train enthusiasts, but it does mean you'll occasionally hear the rumble of passing trains.

Neighborhood Gathering Spot

More than just a playground, this tot lot is a casual meeting place where neighborhood families connect while their little ones play. The compact size means you can easily keep an eye on your child from any spot in the park.

Just a heads-up - there are no restroom facilities here, so you might want to plan accordingly before heading out.
