This 10-acre kiddie attraction dates from 1950, and hasn't changed a whole lot since. We mean that as a compliment! Children's Fairyland, with its little Aesop theater and Peter Rabbit's garden, has all of the nostalgia feels. In a stark contrast to most hyper-frenetic contemporary kids' play parks, there's a raw authenticity to the faded attractions. That said, the park's oldest ride – an Alice in Wonderland-themed carousel dubbed the Wonder-Go-Round – was beautifully restored in 2019.
Located on the northern side of Lake Merritt.
