open to the public June to August daily from 10am to 4pm and weekends September to
May from 10am to 4pm—when the team is out of to wn. On game days, it's open only
to ticket holders. Entrance is free. That commotion-causing wooden bottle contains the
most exciting sets of slides in town: two 56-foot-long curving slides and two 20-foot-long
twisting slides. A 50-by-50-foot replica of the ballpark gives kids ages 3 to 7 an opportu-
nity to play ball just like the big guys. Little sluggers can blast a homer off a batting tee,
use the pitching machine, or hit off a pint-siz ed pitcher if one 's available, while parents
watch from the sidelines. Another section, a 45-foot base race fr om home to first, lets
kids show off how much faster they run than their parents. There's also a speed pitch that
times how fast your future MVPs can throw, a photo booth, and plaques etched with the
signatures of past Giants that can be used to make r ubbings. In addition to all this fun,
the Fan Lot has some of the best vie ws in town.
Just a bit do wn the E mbarcadero heading to ward the F erry Building, look for
South
Beach Park.
This toddler playgr ound is sunny , compact, and sw eet, and on game days
you'll have the thrill of listening to the r oar of the cr owd.
