Greetings!
Here we are right in the middle of summer and what a heat wave it has been!!! Let us help you prevent summer meltdowns with these cool suggestions of great places to go to keep you and your kids happy throughout the rest of the summer.
As a fun way to keep cool in the hot sun, children both young and old will enjoy splash pads, wading pools and water parks. Toddlers can enjoy playing with smaller spray jets at splash pads in Hendon Park in North York or Pottery Playground in Davisville.
