Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden’s has lots to offer kids in the Richmond area – and their annual WaterPlay is just one fun way to enjoy the outdoors. From April 20th through October 6th, 2013, kids can enjoy lots of fun in the WaterPlay area when the temperature is 70 degrees or higher.
When the weather is warm, this is a great place to place, explore, learn, and create. Kids can wear their bathing suits and water shoes to enjoy gentle water sprays and lots of fun. (Swimming diapers are required for those not potty-trained).
The schedule (weather permitting) is as follows:
- Saturdays and Sundays, April 20th through Oct. 6th (weather permitting), 9 – 4:45 p.m.
- Weekday schedule, April 22nd through June 14th (weather permitting), 1 – 4:45 p.m.
