Playland

The Playland at First Christian Church is one of the largest in the area. It has four levels with a super-fast slide and many tubes and stairs providing children loads of fun and excitement. There is also an area designated specifically for toddlers to play (only for children age 2 and under).
As a side note, the Playland is the perfect place to schedule birthday and other children’s parties.
