We are lucky in Brighton to have so many great playgrounds and parks to explore. From swings to slides, to climbing walls and water features, Brighton's parks and playgrounds keep my kids active, are a great place to meet old friends (and make new friends!), and they're FREE!
I often get asked what our favorite playgrounds are, so I thought I'd share here with you my family's picks for some of our top playgrounds and parks to visit in Brighton.
