Sporting fields nearby are usually populated by soccer teams, softball players or folks playing frisbee catch with their pooch. On the canalside, you can catch families out for a stroll, plein air artists or couples walking hand in hand. It's a picture perfect location with a distinct view of the canal.

Went with my sister and nieces to check out this playground that is nestled in Ridge Park in the…read moreheart of Webster! What a CUTE spot! Many fun activities for the kiddos to take part in. Slides, spinny things, benches, swings, and much much more. The ground is that faux turfy/safe to fall on/bouncy rubber, and was super nice. It was busy on a beautiful weekday, so I can tell this is a hot spot for Webster fams. A great opportunity for kids to socialize in the COVID times - though I think the playground is technically made for kids 2 and up. I look forward to many more trips with my nieces and nephew, and love that this is part of a tucked away park. If you're familiar with the Challenger field, the playground is just beyond it. Happy playing and enjoy this gorgeous playgournd!

I've been to a handful of playgrounds in the Webster and Penfield areas and this one is my…read morefavorite. In addition to standard swings and slides, they have a modern seesaw, ground level spinner ride, egg spinners, and a boat that adults could sit in (making up my own names). The ground feels like a padded mat so easier on the hands and knees for falls. I feel comfortable with my 2 yo running around without major scrapes. There are bathrooms nearby and a covered shelter with picnic tables. That's the only area where there's some shade unfortunately. Parking lot next to the town hall. Fun place for kids and adults!

Not fun for anyone over the age of 5. Also, the water fountain doesn't work, which isn't fun.read more

We stopped here on our way camping a couple weeks ago. The playground was fun, and included a…read morelittle zipline. The splash pad is huge. Staff sprays off everyone's feet so they don't bring in beach debris. The swimming beach is so shallow. My boys walked for the longest time and even when they started to swim, they could still stand if they wanted. Warm, too. Not the softest sand, but the way out into the lake isn't too bad. The way back, it feels a little more prickly. Guess the rocks face away from the beach. Plenty of parking, seating and shade.

Tip: There's a path here which (upon closer examination) is actually an old street that's in a pretty far-gone state of disrepair. It's so far gone that it's actually too rough to ride a bike on :-( I suggest you learn from our mistake - if you're actually intended to go for a bike ride, you should seek out another destination.

My granddaughter and I have been here several times. It's a great place for littles to explore in…read morea safe place with lots of different interactive stations and areas. However! Twice now we've been when LARGE groups from schools have been there and it is absolutely chaos. I checked the website before traveling the hour to get there and nothing was mentioned. It was so loud when we entered I couldn't hear anything the girl at the register said. There were many chaperones but no one was actually managing the kids. The place is not that large and it was wild. My granddaughter is 3 1/2 and could barely maneuver around. She had toys taken out of her hand by the older, larger kiddos and you couldn't hear a thing it was so loud. I did talk to a worker from the museum and asked if there's a place to find a schedule and she kind of brushed me off. I gave 3 stars because if you go on a "normal" day it's great for younger kids.

The Children's Museum in Oswego is fantastic and filled my kids with hours of fun and…read moreentertainment. We arrived on a Monday morning, left for lunch, and returned for more play until the museum closed at 4PM. The museum is technically two stories, although the first floor mainly consists of the admissions desk, a small gift shop, and a water play station. Waterproof smocks or covers would have been nice since my son's shirt did get quite wet. There were boats, fishing rods, and cascading channels of water for various kinds of water play. This was a hit with both of my toddlers. The second floor had much more activities. From large and small foam blocks, Magnatiles, a scarf suction pipe/chute, books, light tables, brite light pegs, and a mini spiral climbing structure, to a dentist's office, pizza and salad restaurant, fire truck, tree house, farmers market, farm, toilet to teach plumbing, aluminum recycling, color wheel, and much more, there was a lot for kids of all ages to explore. There was also a small sectioned-off area for 0-2 infants and pre-walkers. The space hosts birthday parties as well as STEM classes. The staff were lovely. We were given a stamp in our hands before we took a break for lunch so that we could re-enter for free that same day. The only complaint I have is that there was less in the way of offering arts and crafts or even free-form drawing. We did not see any parking lot, but took advantage of free 2-hour street parking. This is definitely a great spot for families with young kids in Oswego.

It has two different playscapes, one that's for 2-5 year olds, one that's 5-12 (or thereabouts - confirm for yourselves please), as well as some swings. Nice clean wood chips all around, good light, sufficiently far from traffic, etc. If you need to catch a quick break while the kids are running around, this may be a good option for you.

(So sad) Jack's Place is such an awesome playground! The recommended age range is 5-12. There are so many neat aspects of it including some unique spinning "rides", numerous slides, swings, lots of places to climb and a rubberized digging zone. There are a few benches around for the adults. Our kiddos had so much fun here! Highly recommend!

Plenty of field and a couple of picnic tables. I don't recommend eating there based on our experience yesterday. We were invaded by what looked like fruit flies times 1,000. It literally rained bugs on us at the picnic table within one minute of sitting down so we booked it out of there and ate down the street another playground before returning. There are a few different activities for the kids, some the same as the location in Penfield such as the sand pit (here it's rubber), the big standup spinner, and the signature dinosaurs. Plenty to keep the kids happy. My kids loved it here!

She said that they didn't have enough slides or climbing things other than rocks. she added that it would have been better if there were moving parts to this playground. Spinning parts. Zip lines, bouncing things, etc. Maybe it is AMAZING to kids younger than 8??? As parents, we liked that it was enclosed. (No kids running off or getting taken.) We liked that the ground cover was turf and rubber. (We hate messy mulch.) there were a number of picnic tables outside of the fence so parents could sit out there AND they were the perfect spot for a picnic lunch. This playground is right next to the Greece town splash pad. We bounced back and forth a few times between the splash pad and playground. We definitely would recommend.
