About Children's Fairyland:

Founded in 1950, Children’s Fairyland was the first storybook theme park in the U.S. Created for families with young children, it’s located on the edge of Lake Merritt in Oakland, spanning 10 acres of imagination with play sets, tot-sized rides, friendly animals, lush gardens, and a one-of-a-kind puppet theater.

The park is known for its multicultural educational programs, interactive storytelling, and role in nurturing creativity in children of all backgrounds. Generations of Bay Area families have walked through its fairytale gates—and now you can bring that wonder home in puzzle form.
