We first came across Playground GPS earlier on this year and how delighted we were. It’s one of those Apps that makes things just that little bit easier for parents.

At the click of a button or two, the App will go off and find playgrounds, indoor play centres, petting farms, play cafe’s and other kids activities within your local area. If you are on a long car journey for example and fancy a pitstop, the App will very easily guide you to a nearby above mentioned activity. It even links up with Google and Apple maps to seamlessly provide you with directions from your current location.

The app allows you to find ‘Nearby Playgrounds & Kids Activities’. It allows you to search by Town and also can search along a particular route.

As well as giving directions, it provides you with addresses, contact numbers and links to the Facebook page and website of the activity you are interested in.

It’s available for android phones and tablets from Google Play and for iPhones and iPads from the App Store (links below)

We give this App a 5* rating and as an added bonus, it’s completely free!
