What to know before going

Underwood is a Clinton Hill playground parents often check for age separation, water play, and crowding. It has a lot to offer, and that means it can be busy after school.

The playground is easy to reach by the G train, which helps if you are not coming by car. The surrounding neighborhood also gives families food and coffee options before or after play.

For toddlers, the separated smaller-kid area is the main reason to choose it over a single-equipment playground. For older kids, the larger play area and water section give the visit more range.
