Thornton Park

As much as I dislike sand as the ground for playgrounds, Thornton Park is one of my favourite places to take the kids in the summer. It's got the playground (swings, slides, monkey bars), a basketball court and one of the best splash parks in the city. Ideal summer spot.

Basketball court, splash park, swings and play structure appropriate for young kids. Great place even without the splash area.

Nice park, about a city block in size.
Trees, grass, benches, picnic tables, water splash park for kids. Slides & swings, sand pit and some other play apparatus.
Clean tidy & well maintained. Good little neighborhood place.

Located in a quiet residential area and surrounded by trees, it is one of the best spray parks I have ever been. Enough grass, a barbecue place, and some spots covered by shadow: it has always been a refreshing moment for us. Until I find something better on the East side, this is my place to go.

We like Thorton Park as it's big and shady. Nice splash pad and great playground.
