Reviews of Nature Playground (Zoo)

Finn Jake

Beautiful park to take your kids too to have a good time and burn off some energy! They have a few slides, two types of swings and a water station lol other stuff too!

Sarah Johnson

This playground is incredible. My children love it, and they are almost too old to play in a playground anymore. The sand and water feature is about the greatest thing. Bring a change of clothes. The drawback to this park is that there is no place where a parent can see everything. A crafty child can slip away pretty quickly. There are lots of places to explore, so there are lots of places to hide. This is fine for older kids, but for toddlers. It means a parent has to follow them around pretty closely.

Lot's of fun things to do for kids, clean washrooms and great picnic shelter.

Keith Norek

A good playground with suitable activities for almost all ages of kids. Swings, slides, climbing stuff, water and sand, music and noisemakers. Lots of fun activities. There are nice sitting areas and a picnic/BBQ shelter, washrooms nearby, and decent parking available.

Ben Jiménez

This is such a wonder place to take the family. The imaginative play in the water/sand area is always a delight to see. The grounds are kept very clean. Bring a snack and a change of clothes for The kids and make an entire day out of it. Great place all around.

Great set of playground equipment to entertain the 5 to 12 years old crowd. However, what makes this location notable is this statue of Winnie the Bear and a plaque explaining the connection between Winnipeg and AA Milne's Winnie the Pooh stories.

Peter Heasler

Kids always have lots of fun here. I find it stressful though because it's always super busy and hard to keep track of my kids.

Louie Doulias

Great place to bring small kids to play. There are a few slides, swings and other things here too check out, plus rubber on the playground to protect kids from falls. It closes at sundown.

Rob Mack

A great park. Clean and modern. Lots of fun stuff for the kids to do. Check out my 360 photo and VR video.

Samantha Baskerville

Peaceful area with beautiful flowers and sculptures. We really enjoy the music in the park when they run these events. Its convenient being in assiniboine park, you can enjoy the pond, lyric theatre and other events going in. If you want to make a family day out of it the zoo is close by.

Kyra Thiele

Took my kiddo for a picnic and playtime. The facilities are nice, but appear to be in need of some TLC. Overall a great place for families.

Moshiur Rahman

Kids love this place. The whole area is closed during winter time. There could have been more fun things installed to do during winter time.

Mr. Gnomekiller

My daughter loves it there.

Relax with Aay

So many kids love this park! My niece loves the slides, and to play! Clean, and promotes creative play. There's washrooms nearby, and a picnic shelter. Parking is close too!

An amazing playground with lots of things for kids to climb and have fun.

This review is for the toboggan slide behind the Nature Park. I took my toddlers there on a nice day, and there were a few other kids playing, but the run was mostly ice with a big bump halfway down. Going over the bump and then landing hard on our bums hurt a lot. There are no stairs to get up to the top, and the path along the sides of the run were so icy I had to carry my kids and the sled while holding onto the fence! I will go again when there is more snow, but not fun when it is mostly ice.

Sharon Green

The kids loved playground...lots to play on. Benches under the trees for watching the kids...

Veronica Daigle

Really neat, unique playground! Kids loved it

Makaylee R

It was really fun I went with my mom, sister, sisters boyfriend, neice and nephew and my nephew loved it there he played there for quite a while my neice is only a few months old so she couldn't play on it

Great little playground hidden away. A few people I talked to didn't even know it was there. Slides, swings sandbox and other structures. They have a little flow fountain type structure that the kids can play with. Opening doors to let the water drain out in different directions. Has a small metal wheel that spins when the water flows over it.

Matthew Martens

Fantastic place for children of all ages! Highly recommended! A must see for residents and visitors alike!

Josh Kusiak

The kids love the nature playground at Assiniboine park. They love the slides and the swings. The adults enjoy the fire pits.

Miles Reid

Lots of fun. Very busy on a Sunday morning. Great set up. Let's keep it maintained and awesome

Laurie Montizambert

What a lovely place for children. The playground was colourful, clean and full of items to explore. I appreciated that there were things for children of all sizes and ages.

Cindy Munroe

Brought my little ones a few times and we love it...wasps are a little pesty but it's like that everywhere...

Earl Duke Official

This playground is a really fun place for kids. The slides are alot of fun as well as the other play structures. The kids had a really good time. There is also alot of other things to do at Assiniboine Park. Only unfortunate thing is the water features are no longer operating.

Sergey Kruchinin

The place is good and safety for children. You can play there up to 9pm. There is a free parking place, moreover, there is a special place for barbecue there.

Chris Culleton-Koebel

My sons loves the water stream.

Michael Silicz

Always a great time to be had the Nature Playground! Lots of play options ranging from tots to bigger kids. Enough shaded areas to avoid the sun if necessary. Could use more swings though. Overall one of the best playgrounds in the city, plus it's got all the rest of the amenities of Assiniboine Park

Abigail Larson

Too many wasps. Kids getting stung all over the place. Luckily we brought a tent, other3we couldn't have stayed

matt ferber

This place is pretty cool, actually. Neat rock climbing structure, swings, a really cool water play area, large eating structure right nearby. Lots of other stuff! Definitely check it out if you haven't

I went here for my girlfriends daughters 2nd birthday party. What a great play area! A great inexpensive way to celebrate a child's birthday. Any child would be thrilled to spend an afternoon there. Get there early if you want a table though. It is very busy and not a lot of close parking as the lot fills up quickly.

Richard Cherry Tsueda

So many hands on things for kids to do, large area under cover for picnics.

Mandy Hyatt

Beautiful playground with lots of interesting features and places to play. Very busy place so you'll have to wait your turn for some things but the kid loved it.

Josi Johns

We love visiting this playground. Great location and lots of different options for all ages. The Sand and water section is always a huge hit. Lots of parking nearby too.

Bertha Ethier

Fantastic play area with water, sand, swings, slides and climbing structures. A neat pond and lots of trees. My kids loved it.

Bea chantel

Very nice playground in general. The area is pretty padded. It comes with a water table. Although most of the struture is geared towards bigger kids. But still enjoyable for small ones.

amv bochok

Very nice place for kids to play. On Winter, this turns into tobogganing place.

Samantha Trafford

Kids love it! Not many parks have sand anymore but this one has a great area for kids to experience water in sand.

Junko Bailey

Very spacious and lots of interesting play structures which are different from local parks.

Nick Busch

Could be made more interesting. But the kids loved it. Its the type of place that once or twice a year is enough to visit.

Ricardo F

Great place for kids and their parents. There's a tent for parties that handles several people and several parties at the same time, fire pits with more room for parties. There's a clean bathroom close. Lots of fun for the little ones with water amusements, swings, and slides. Our son loves it.

Jenn

It's a great park with lots activities. Very clean and inviting

Marlene Voth

This is a wonderful playground, intelligently designed, with the child in mind. Very large, interesting and educational, includes a covered picnic area, modern bathrooms and ample parking within Assiniboine Park. I wish it had been around when my kids were little!!!

Carol Cassell

The Nature Playground is always fun to visit and keeps my 2 year old occupied for a few hours. There are slides, swings and places to climb, but if you explore past the obvious playground there are tunnels, plant sculptures, musical instruments and other fun things to explore. It could use more than 2 baby swings and 4 saucer swings.

Heather Hill

this is probably one of the if nit the best places to go to in Winnipeg with kids. It's very engaging with a water pump play area, huge sand box, slides, ship climbing structure and gardens and it's free!

Johnathan David

Lots of cool things to explore with the kids. I would say great for ages 2-10.

Femi Oderinle

Very familiar place. This time a bit messy because of the rainfall previous days. A bit of bee disturbance.

felix lee

Great playground! Very clean and well-maintained. There is an assortment of activities, including slides, saucer swings, and climbers. Sand and water areas are available in the summer. Artificial hills are a nice touch.

Darren Desjardins

Its busy, but there is lots to do. Its nice that there are large picnic areas with bbq pits all around. There is not alot of shade in the nature playground so be careful when its hot out

Minh Duong

Amazing place to bring your kids to play. Kids love it!

Paul Browning

Nice set up needs to have the water working and the second slide also needs to be repaired but kids still had a good time there

Nicole S.

Kids love it. Space to move and play. Benches and seats for adults

Daniel Fillion

So cool! Wish this existed when I was a kid.

Lisa Friesen

This is a fantastic play structure with tons of areas to sit & have supper. Unfortunately, two out of four of the saucer swings are still missing from last Fall & the water fountain wasn't up & running today & it shod have been. Otherwise, no complaints!

Erika Doerr

Our kids love this playground. Unfortunately the second slide is closed for a year already and the lineup is long. Also the fun pirate ship is closed this year. I'm disappointed about people neglecting the "No Dog" Policy. Many children are afraid of dogs, I think it's important to follow that rule. Especially with bigger dogs. We also have a small dog, but we don't take her with us. Very dangerous on crowded days. You never know what dogs get along, and all the kids around that?

Greg Carlos

One of the best outdoor areas in Wpg. We should have more like this. I think this is good for our kids to become physically active outdoor and make friends.

Kevin

Very nice! The kids enjoyed the water, slides, garden, and other play structures. The whole family had a fun time here. Nice green space Winnipeg!

Samichi Saluja

An amazing place.. just too very crowded, and not everyone wears mask..

bryce cooper

A great play area near the centre of Assiniboine park. All the structures are well designed and in good condition, the water pump and canals make me wish I was a child again.

Sandra Terra

Still a great place. Less than it was a few years ago. Greenery is less and tunnels are not well maintained. Good clean picnic sites in the grass and under the shelter. Was missing the disk swings when we were there. Still occupied an 8 year old for a good 2 hours.

Jasmine IA

The nature Park is always great to take my son to but when we went today April 19th 2019 the washrooms were closed the nature Park was full of families and kids and had a lot of parents having to walk to the washrooms by the duck pond which was not good

Nabeel Ish

This park has something for all kids...the structures are light years better than most parks. Even has a rock climbing Hill for kids!...careful on the rope climbing structure though, kids can fall through.

Gregory Dube

A wonderful place for kids just to be free and enjoy!

Peter Prociuk

Great park. My 2 year old loved it.

Krizz Beez

My kids love this play ground. We love the sand & water area and the huge slide. Only thing that bothers me is one of the large saucer swings broke a few years ago and was never replaced.

Maria Garcia

I love taking my kids to the Nature Playground in summer, so much to do for the kids and lots of pretty flowers. They really do a great job with the gardens.
