River Market Fountain

The Little Rock River Market has a great place for kids to play. A water park. For free. It’s beautiful and my kids love it. So much so, that it’ll be kicking off my Central Arkansas Showcase series.  By the way, if you have suggestions for this list, leave me a comment or drop me an email.

Here are a few pics from our recent trip. These show off the park more than my kids – those pictures will follow, of course!

In addition to the park itself, the view in the background is gorgeous.

There’s a jungle gym to climb.  And look at the river in the background from this view.

There’s a place to learn about the Quapaw Indians and how Little Rock got its name.  BigMan called him DumDum!

Hope you find a sunny day to enjoy it soon!

    Burns Park is a great place…they’ve got rides. You can either purchase tickets or an armband per child with unlimited riding. They snack place has great snow cones. They also have miniature golf (not sure how much) and lots of fun playground areas which are free. Could easily pack a picnic and have a full day.

    I’ve heard good things about party time pizza in WLR but haven’t actually been there yet.
