Brendan's Playground — Attraction in O’Fallon

This playground is unique to others in the area due to the interactive things it offers (outdoor/bug noises when you press a button, lots of musical instruments). It's much smaller than other playgrounds, but it has a couple of each thing (slides, swings).

There are a few issues, such as the bathroom and splash pad are a ways off from the main playground area. This makes it difficult to keep kids in sight. The main issue is shade, or lack thereof. We last visited on a very sunny day and only stayed about 15mins. My kids were really disappointed, but nearly all of the equipment was too hot to use; and my 3yr-old's hands and knees were burned on the climbing caterpillar.
