23 Spraygrounds to Cool Off at this Summer

Spraygrounds2013

[please visit our updated 2016 sprayground list]

We all need a place to take the kids for some fun water play when it is HOT and are extremely lucky that throughout Sacramento, there are 23 parks with wonderful water features open for the Summer!

The majority of them have just turned their water on or will be turning it on Saturday…so you can cool off throughout Memorial Day weekend! We have toured several spraygrounds the last couple summers and you’ll see links to our reviews. We plan to get to even more this summer so that we can continue to share more photos and park details with you.

Not only do these spraygrounds provide hours of fun but they are FREE!  Happy Splashing!

My love for exploring and creating experiences with my three kids led to the founding of SacramentoSidetracks.com in 2009. I realized that Sacramento has so much to offer and I was excited to share my findings with other parents. Besides simply having fun, these are the other positive side effects of taking my kids on outings that I’ve discovered: we have quality time together away from the distractions at home, we cultivate our curiosity, learn new things, conversations are triggered by what we see and do, we connect and bond as a family, and we create new memories. Ready to get sidetracked, too? Let me be your guide!
