Ollie's Fun Forest Playground

Play for All!
What does it mean for a community to have a place where everyone can play together? Where parents can share the joy of their children of all abilities and watch all their kids just be kids—or even join them on the equipment?

The City of St. Peters made this dream a reality for our community in 2022 when we built “Ollie’s Fun Forest”, a fully-inclusive and ADA-compliant playground focused on delivering a joyful play experience for all! Check out Ollie's Fun Forest at 101 City Centre Park Drive off Mexico Road.

Ollie's Fun Forest Features:
Natural tree-based design integrated with City Centre Park’s surrounding forest
Color palette that doesn’t overstimulate users, while still using accent colors and wayfinding to guide kids to important park features
Wide paths and ramps
Equipment with different degrees of difficulty located in close proximity to encourage engagement between children of diverse abilities
Resting points that allow children to rest without leaving the play area
Shaded seating at each play area to provide the best vantage points for supervision
Areas of high activity as well as calming spaces
Permanent perimeter fencing
Upgraded restroom featuring a separate family room, adult-size changing table, wheelchair-friendly full-length mirrors and full-length urinals
We also redesigned the trail system, the parking lot, and the existing rental pavilion to create an entirely inclusive experience the moment you arrive at the park. These unique amenities make this destination playground an unmatched benefit to the entire region.

Additional parking is available at City Centre Park, beside the Gazebo.
