They enjoy the swings and being outside, they can release some of their adrenaline. In any urban city, playgrounds are of vital importance for families, so that children can go outdoors and play. For this exact reason many parents choose to live in an area where playgrounds are close to their home. This way they don\u2019t have to travel too far for their children to enjoy some time outside each day. Today <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>ShBarcelona<\/strong><\/a> wants to tell you more about the best playgrounds in the Catalan capital.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Related article:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/water-parks-in-catalonia\/\">Water Parks in Catalonia<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Enjoy Barcelona\u2019s playgrounds<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_98448\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-98448\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-98448\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/mother-1039765_1920-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-98448\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Photo via Pixabay<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Playgrounds are one of the most valued elements for people who decide to move to a Spanish city, and Barcelona is no exception to this. Being able to take your offspring to a lovely <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/activities-parks-barcelona\/\"><strong>park<\/strong><\/a> after school and before turning home or on the weekends, is essential for the comfort of both parents and children. This is exactly why a neighbourhood with many parks is chosen as their home by many families with children. There are many parks in Barcelona where you can take your children, but some are more interesting than others for several reasons: good quality play equipment, safety measures and a nice and functional design. The first park that we recommend on our blog is <strong>Parque de la Ciutadella<\/strong>, which is located in a central and emblematic part of \u200b\u200bthe city. Due to its size, you can find different areas with playgrounds, rest areas with perfect shadows for a fantastic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/park-picnic-barcelona\/\"><strong>picnic<\/strong><\/a>, or you can even visit the nearby Barcelona Zoo. Our second recommendation is totally different from Parque de la Ciutadella, as this space is located close to the beach. <strong>Parque del<\/strong> <strong>Diagonal Mar <\/strong>is one of the most original and sustainable parks in the Catalan capital. The playgrounds with giant slides are an absolute joy for children, and they make even you want to climb up those ladders, no matter what your age is. The area is nicely decorated with wood, so you can easily spend a few hours there. This park is highly recommended!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Related article:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/green-indoor-park\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Green Indoor Park \u2013 Great Fun for Children and Adults<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_98451\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-98451\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-98451\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/people-2605805_1920-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-98451\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Photo via Pixabay<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One other park which is ideal for kids, is also visited by tourists from all over the world: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/tickets-park-guell\/\"><strong>Parque G\u00fcell<\/strong><\/a>. This special park is full of surprises. Its concept, size and location are unique, and you can enjoy good <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/terrace-views-barcelona\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>views<\/strong><\/a> and long walks through this forest area of \u200b\u200bBarcelona. It is important to note that Parque G\u00fcell has four playgrounds throughout the entire park, each adapted for all ages. Our last recommendation is not far from Parque G\u00fcell, it is the <strong>Parque de la<\/strong> <strong>Creueta del Coll<\/strong>, located between the neighbourhoods of<strong> El Coll <\/strong>and<strong> Vallcarca<\/strong>, in the upper part of the district of<strong> Gracia<\/strong>. You will love taking your kids there. The park is large, but safe, with a specific area where you can find a bar, a basketball court, a ping-pong table and a playground. Its design makes it easy to keep an eye on your children, both from the bottom and from higher parts. The lake in the central area of the park is currently under construction, but in summer you can take a \u00a0swim and cool down here.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>What is your favourite playground in Barcelona?<\/strong><\/p>\n<div style=\"display: none;\"\n    class=\"kk-star-ratings kksr-valign-bottom kksr-align-left \"\n    data-id=\"98461\"\n    data-slug=\"\">\n    <div class=\"kksr-stars\">\n    <div class=\"kksr-stars-inactive\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"1\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"2\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"3\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"4\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"5\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"kksr-stars-active\" style=\"width: 35px;\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 25px; height: 25px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <div class=\"kksr-legend\">\n            <strong class=\"kksr-score\">1.2<\/strong>\n        <span class=\"kksr-muted\">\/<\/span>\n        <strong>5<\/strong>\n        <span class=\"kksr-muted\">(<\/span>\n        <strong class=\"kksr-count\">6<\/strong>\n        <span class=\"kksr-muted\">\n            votes        <\/span>\n        <span class=\"kksr-muted\">)<\/span>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Children love to play in parks with other children.
