In fact it didn't interest my big kids all that much. There wasn't a "can we go back to the other park?" It was, "we're going back to the other one. Bye, Mom." Lol. Just a reminder parents, please teach your kids to pick up their trash right before you leave. It's good for them and helps us all enjoy the park much more. Plus the Arkansas River is just a few yards away.

This is a neat like sub-park/play area located in Riverfront Park, just off of the main section of…read morethe Vogel Schwartz Sculpture Garden. It is named after Margaret Clark in appreciation of her longtime commitment to children and her interest in Riverfront Park. Her husband William E. Clark, has a wetlands park, down the street from this one by the Clinton Library, that is dedicated to him as well. It is very nice and welcoming. You know you have found the park when you see the twin sheep sculptures, Bliss and Glee, which are the work of Giuseppe Palumb. The park also has a hippopotamus sculpture named Roundbottom, that serves double duty as a bench. It is the work of Tim Cherry. The park opened in 2018 and still looks relatively new. It was designed for children ages 2-5 and is on artificial grass and mud free rubber surface. The park appears to have a nature theme and has a bank of traditional/toddler swings, rocks to climb, percussion instruments, bridges, slides, stand and spin, and a spinning cone climber. The slides are small and there is not much there as far as equipment goes, so I do not see the park entertaining kids much older than 5. It is a nice park though and well maintained. I have no issue with them catering to pre-school kids because sometimes the littles get over run over and pushed to the side by the big kids at other parks. This is not a destination park, but it is nice spot to visit if you are in the area with little kids and some time to kill.

Peabody Park is a playground area inside Riverfront Park in Little Rock, AR…read more This was the first area my 12 and 10-year-olds wanted to navigate. They loved it. Admittedly we were all bummed the splash pad in this particular area was still inoperable (according the Tank G.'s 6.20.2023 review). However, walk a bit further to the east and there is another one. The inclusion of the splash pad in this flatter area was quite the boffo decision on city official's part as the July 2025 heat proved to be highly intense. I didn't allow my dog to run through it as there were many other kids including my daughters enjoying the splashes of cold water, but she acted like she wanted to. She's normally little Miss "Oh No the neighbor's sprinklers are going to spray me." Lol. I didn't take photos of this park because there were so many kids there. The humidity mixed with the Arkansas heat was a bit more bearable with the trees and shade structures nearby. I appreciate the tube slides (since they're enclosed) so the kids don't burn their bums sliding down... Lol. And thank goodness I had our dog with me because otherwise I might have needed rescuing much like this recent News Nation headline: "Connecticut man, 43, rescued after 'wedged' in playground slide." Knocked off a star due to many areas such as the playground surface being worn out and being quite the salient eyesores.

This park, billed as "An Adventure Playground" is located in Riverfront Park just off of the…read moreJunction Bridge. The play area was designed by children and opened in the Summer of 2008. The park features an awesome splash pad, large outdoor and underground tunnels, a spider pyramid, giant rocks for climbing, a bridge and a slide. A large portion of the play area's ground (lower level) is lined with the mud free rubber surface. It has a kind of unique setup where it is kind of like two levels. An upper level and a lower level, with the two being separated by a steep incline. One cool part about this is that you can take the slide from the upper to lower level. On a side note, the splash pad was not operating while I was there, but it was just the beginning of Summer, so I cannot really speak much about it. It does look nice though You will also find a pavilion, Ozark Pavilion, that is elevated and overlooks the splash pad and play area, n the area that allows parents to sit and relax, while supervising their littles. The park is very well maintained and still looks relatively new. There is metered street parking within a reasonable walking distance to/from the park and the meters run from 8AM to 6PM, Monday through Friday. This is a very nice park to visit and spend some time at. It is spacious and picturesque. I highly recommend checking this place out if you get the chance.

It was a sweltering hot day on July 22, 2025, but my daughters, our dog, and I enjoyed this place anyway. The park, named after a for parks and recreation director named Julius Breckling (not listed on this Yelp page with his name), was huge - 39 acres huge. Lol. The cons were: - trash scattered sparingly on the ground - sus characters - some areas that were worn out/ run down - parking fees (see below) - no restrooms available - none that we saw Pros: + amphitheater + dogs on leashes okay + playground area + sculptures throughout + shaded sitting areas + splash pad (there were two of them, but only one was operable that day) + terraces + walking paths + water fountains + nearby pedestrian bridge + The Little Rock monument near the bridge Parking was $3 per hour for 8 hours maximum - enforced 24/7.
