Play and Splash at De Paddenstoel

On hot summer days, De Paddenstoel in Wantijpark is the perfect spot for little water lovers. In the shallow splash pool, children can play, splash around, and cool off safely, while parents enjoy a relaxing afternoon surrounded by greenery. With buckets, shovels, and water wheels, children can entertain themselves here for hours on end.

Thanks to its location in Wantijpark, you can easily combine a visit with a walk, a picnic, or an afternoon of play in the park. Want to know when De Paddenstoel is open? Visit dordrecht.nl/spartelbadje for the latest information and to sign up for the WhatsApp channel! 

Ready for a water fight!

On a hot summer day, sometimes all you need is a bucket of water, a few friends, and a healthy dose of imagination. And that adventure starts at Juffrouw Pollewop. At this toy store, you’ll find original play ideas: from water shooters to splash balls. This summer’s big favorite is the reusable water balloons. “You simply fill them in a bucket, snap them shut with a little magnet, and you’re ready to keep playing right away,” says Mette Korteland.

Have you gathered your water balloons, water guns, and buckets? Then the Kloostertuin is the perfect spot for a refreshing water fight. Round up a group of friends and let the battle begin!

Beach Vibes at the Tongplaat

Sand between your toes, a view of the water, and plenty of space to play. You don’t have to leave Dordrecht to experience that real beach feeling. At the Tongplaat, kids can build with sand, play by the water’s edge, and spend hours outdoors. 

Bring a picnic blanket, gather some shovels and buckets, and enjoy a relaxing day with the whole family. While the kids go on an adventure, parents can unwind in nature, looking out over the water. It’s a wonderful destination to get some fresh air on warm days and spend time together by the water. 

Going out with the kids?
