Toddler Activities in Sunrise, Florida
Sunrise means Sawgrass to a lot of people and a regular city park to everyone who lives here. Skip the mall as the default. Use the municipal parks and splash features, then indoor play when lightning is within 10 miles — which is most summer afternoons. You can steal Weston or Plantation if you need a change of scenery. Below is Sunrise inventory only.

14 spots
Welleby Park
Sunrise · Central Broward
Rubberized surfacing and a shade canopy keep the equipment cooler, and Safety Town is one of the few places around built at toddler scale rather than scaled down from big-kid equipment.
Markham Park
Sunrise · Central Broward
Watching model airplanes take off is free entertainment gold, and the playgrounds are spacious enough for careful crawlers.
Sunrise Light Up The Holidays
Sunrise · Central Broward
Snow slide, Santa, and a 7pm tree lighting — do the resident Santa window early, catch the lighting, and skip the 9pm drone show if bedtime wins.
Flippo's Fun Center
Sunrise · Central Broward
Big enough to tire out a high-energy toddler, with multiple locations so one is usually close to wherever your shift ends.
Sawgrass Sanctuary
Sunrise · Central Broward
Flat paved paths and a calm lakeside setting make it a low-key stroller walk you can do before or after a Sawgrass errand.
Cypress Preserve Park
Sunrise · Central Broward
A no-cost splash pad with a playground right beside it — an easy, close cool-down for central-Broward families.
Dan Pearl Branch Library
Sunrise · Central Broward
The Tue/Wed noon-8pm hours are the ones that actually work if you slept after a night shift.
Chuck E. Cheese
Sunrise · Central Broward
Rides and ticket games are built for little hands. Go at weekday open if crowds and noise bother your kid.
Arcade Zone Fun Park
Sunrise · Central Broward
Built for elementary and under, not teens. The playground height cap (around 55") keeps the big kids out of the little-kid structure.
Rainforest Cafe — Sawgrass Mills
Sunrise · Central Broward
The room entertains itself. Go at open (11am) if crowds and noise bother your kid. Pair with mall wandering, not a second attraction.
Sunrise Boo Bash
Sunrise · Central Broward
A 3–6pm window is perfect for naps-then-candy without a late night. Confirm residency rules before you drive.
Sunrise Trick or Trot 5K
Sunrise · Central Broward
Less toddler-core than a park playground, but the Kids' Dash (ages 10 & under, short distances by age) and costume vibe work for families who want a Halloween morning outing. Strollers welcome on the 5K.
Sunrise Dan Pearl Fall Halloween Party
Sunrise · Central Broward
Free Saturday afternoon library Halloween with crafts and candy — do the 2:30 costume contest start, skip a long movie if littles are done, and you're home before dinner.
Oak Hammock Park
Sunrise · Central Broward
Two accessible playgrounds under oak shade plus a nature-trail walk -- a good all-abilities play stop.
