Playgrounds have been open in Bucks County since last summer. Officials still commend children sanitize their hands often, keep a safe distance from others, wear masks, visit parks near your home, and if it is crowded. But as long as  the guidelines are followed, these playgrounds are a great way to get out of the house for some fresh air, exercise, and a change of scenery.

Kids Castle at Doylestown Central Park

425 Wells Road, Doylestown

Kids Castle is arguably the most famous playground in Bucks County. As a result of recent renovations, the inclusive playground now features new play structures that meet the needs of children with a variety of abilities, encouraging cooperative play. Play features are also included for children with visual impairment, hearing impairment, autism/SPD, mobility impairment, and cognitive disabilities.

In addition to these inclusive play upgrades, improvements were made to the existing playground, including the installation of a new, more durable safety surfacing called Poured-in-Place that also provides equal access to the playground for all.

Slides, swings, tubes, designated tot areas, bridges, climbing areas, nature panels, oh – and a CASTLE!

During the summer months, the Splash Pole turns on, so it’s a great spot to bring the kids to cool off! (And YES – according to Facebook, the Splash Pole is on!)
