You’re missing gilbert regional park splash pad! Also it would be awesome to get a little info about each to know which are the best. For example, I felt the water pressure is a little too high at Espee park so it was too much for my 18 month old.
Hey Kaylee! Thanks for the comment! This post is actually from 2018, so Gilbert Regional was not around then. We will definitely take note about the water pressure and consider adding a note about that for future posts! 🙂
