Wizard of Oz sculptures of Dorothy, the Tin Man, Scarecrow, and Cowardly Lion lead the way to Dorothy's Playlot, built for young children with climbing equipment, swings, and room to run, including a wooden castle-maze and separate toddler equipment. A Lincoln Park favorite for families with preschoolers.
