Before You Go: A Playground Packing Checklist
A quick pack list before you head out the door:
- Water bottles (Florida heat adds up fast)
- Sunscreen, reapplied every 2 hours outdoors
- Hats or sun-protective clothing
- A small first-aid kit or at least bandages
- Hand sanitizer or wipes
- A change of clothes if there's a splash pad on the itinerary
- Snacks
- Bug spray, especially near wooded or waterfront parks
Many listed parks include a 💦 Splash pad tag — worth checking before you go if you want to plan for wet clothes. See the full parks directory.
