Houston Splash Pad Locations – Play Safely

As Mom to little kids, I personally love splash pads. To me they seem and feel so much safer for the little ones to play at. I worry so much less about someone drowning and have a much better time myself.

Here in The Woodlands there are a number of splash pads available for play. There is of course the one in front of Tommy Bahama’s in Market Street and one along the waterway. Although I have not seen the Market Street one going this summer?
