Research shows that children are healthier and more successful when they have ample unstructured play time in their lives. The 7-acre Eldean Family Nature Play Park, located behind the Visitor Center and adjacent to the Discovery Pavilion, was created to provide a play area that will inspire creative play using natural structures. The ever-popular zipline is also a great way for kids to be kids!
