Thanks

Are you looking for one area of the city or all over? Eden prairie has a free one at miller park, Apple Valley also has a free one at Kelly park, MN zoo has one & there is one in st. Louse park that Now cost $1 if you are not a residents (oak Hills park)

Edit - Also I know Como zoo has one but I don't know the cost

Not sure of your location but Wabun Picnic area at Minnehaha Falls has a great one - only a couple years old and it's free.

Tons of the parks in Minneapolis have wading pools. Wabun is our favorite because it is closest. There is also North Mississippi Park that is more than just the standard rectangle wading pool for those on the northern side.

All of the wading pools (check Wading Pool then click Go): https://www.minneapolisparks.org/default.asp?PageID=633

Nicollet Commons in Burnsville has water fountains.

Como Town's sprinkler play area is one of their "rides" that you can use points to get a wristband good for the whole day. It works out to about $4 if you just buy enough points for the wristband. $0.22/point x 18 points = $3.96

There is a park with sprinklers in St Paul, Lewis Park. It is near Mama's. Not the best neighborhood and quite littered the two times we've been there. I think it is funny that it refers to it as a "tot lot" since the other playground equipment is not for the younger kids at all.

Rosebrook Park in Roseville has a wading pool:

There is one in Apple Valley - Kelly Park. I haven't been there yet but will be going this week. It's free.

Burnsville has one too at nicolette commons - it is a fun one with a creek to wade in.
