Why Scioto Audubon Metro Park why was this picked
Scioto Audubon Metro Park ranks seventh for outdoor toddler play on the Whittier Peninsula: an age-split playground, picnic tables, and boardwalk with skyline views without a drive to the suburbs. Lead with the playground, not the climbing wall aimed at older kids. The Audubon Center indoor play cave is only a weather footnote.
- Age-appropriate playground for younger kids
- Boardwalk and skyline outdoor setting
- Franklinton Whittier Street access near Downtown
