Aikahi Elementary School Playground

Aikahi playground is super cute for the littles. They have a fun dragon that you can climb on with various treehouses, monkey bars, swings and all sorts of fun areas to climb on and through. It is gated and on school grounds but on weekdays after school and weekends, one of the gates is open for public play.

Fourth made skat very good and delis ối ối used it for some steaks nice teacher called April bright !!

Enter the dreamland of playground wonderland!As I was searching on Yelp for Aikahi Elementary School for their Swap Meet event the first thing that popped up was their Playground...!?! So random...No...have you seen this land of happy dreams even as an adult.First thing you see is the giant Dragon with each scale encase a tile with art by children and those tiles are at entrance area as well.I wanted to take more pictures but it was filled with children "of course lol!" and didn't want to take their faces but the rock wall, Turtle hideaway, even a tree house looking play area I was just so impressed.I assume it's exclusively for the school students but open to all on this day did draw an impressive crowd understandably, and what a great environment to have the kids go outside and just have fun. So highly recommended the drive for any events they may have as this is an impressive park that will please all ages!Thank you!

If you're looking for the Shangri-La of playgrounds, look no further than Aikahi Elementary.I was on the hunt for the best playground in the State for my two young boys (4.5 and 3 yrs old). Most park playgrounds are designed for ages 5 and up, with dangerous drop offs and advanced obstacle courses. It's not a deal breaker, but you def need to keep a watchful eye on the wee ones. My boss recommended Aikahi (he was a school teacher for the DOE so he knew the hidden gems on the island). The way he was hype-ing up Aikahi seemed too good to be true. "It's unlike anything you've ever seen. You just gotta go. It's worth the drive."Was he right? 100 percent.Aikahi playground is on school property so the gates can be an obstacle in itself. But that doesn't stop dozens of families from jumping the fence to reach their recreational destination. Street parking is available around the school and we've never had a problem finding a stall. The playground was built by 100+ Marines and funded by multiple organizations around the State, including HFD. This ain't no ordinary jungle gym. 95% of the playground is made from recycled materials and it truly looks like an agility course for kids: conveyor belt bridges, chain link and rope ramps, "the bow of a boat" with gliding floors, a turtle bunker, and rock climbing facades to name a few activities.My boys absolutely love it, and we make it a point to come here every few weeks with musubis and enjoy driving through the Pali tunnel to reach kiddie nirvana. Take your keiki, too, and enjoy the moment! The whole family will love it.

Be aware! This is part of an elementary school. Playground is closed for public If not attending school or school is not open.

Closest to a 'Mainland' playground you will find on this island. Definitely worth the drive out from where we live. There's numerous play structures for kids of all ages, I'd say best for toddler age till 10-11 years old. I've never seen so many types of monkey bars, plus side was as a short parent I could actual reach those bars compared to the playgrounds on the Leeward side.

While having brunch with a friend at Boots & Kimo's we decided to spend some time afterward at a park nearby to let the kids burn off some energy. A simple search for "parks" into Yelp led me here. Unfamiliar with the Kailua area, I tapped the directions button on the map and it was easy peasy getting here within 10 minutes. This park is on the Aikahi Elementary School property and is enclosed by gate. We parked on the street and walked around through the parking lot. Not sure when it is acceptable to come on the property but I would assume probably not ok during school time. What lots of parks on Island are missing are swings and this one is no different, no swings unfortunately. But one things for sure, its not lacking space or activities! This park is huge! It's very much like a Tree house theme and is appropriate for ages between 5-12 as per posted signage. Although it's recommended for those ages, there are still little ones that are younger. My children are between the appropriate ages and play nicely, but even my kids noticed there are lots of older ones that play quite roughThe activities here are unlike any other park I have seen on the island so far. There are 4 different slides, a little climbing wall, 5 different monkey bars, a bouncy "bridge", a swaying "ship", and lots of shaded seating surrounding. The wall enclosure closest to the school is made in the shape of a dragon! Part of the playground is painted to be a honu and another portion is like the front of a small ship.This was our first visit and while spending a little over an hour here we definitely enjoyed our time. My girlfriend and I were able to let the kids play freely while we sat in the shade to "spill some tea and throw some shade" lol, not really. The other visitors did the same. Some parks on Island can really be a hit or miss. Sometimes rude parents and kids, trash and bad smells everywhere. This park is clean, so that's awesome for everyone! Too bad there aren't more parks like this, but I know not everyone helps to keep the parks in good condition...

Found this spot by searching kids playgrounds in Yelp - there aren't many good ones on island IMO. I was instantly excited when seeing the pictures other people had posted and strolled with my two young kids to check it out. It's attached to an elementary school and I believe you can utilize it when school isn't in session. There is a sign on the gate that says closed for the summer but there were still patrons on the playgrounds ..so we joined them.The playground is huge and has a little bit of everything - slides, bridges, climbing structures, etc. perfect place for the kids to burn some energy. There are also benches to sit.I agree with the other reviews here, and that is to help keep it clean. It wasn't bad at all when we went but I definitely want to help keep it clean so we can all enjoy this awesome park.

My 7years old son was really loved this place. He and his friend played 3 hours. It's not that much dangerous, parents sit the bench under the tree.

Why is this park in yelp? Is inside a school with a not trespassing sign , the only way to get in is by jumping the fence. There's not facilities either. But sadly here in the island there's a lack of nice playgrounds, and the playground in this school is amazing.
