Open from May to September, visiting the Toronto Islands is a must for a sunny day. Pack a picnic and an empty water bottle to fill up at one of the many fountains around the island. Once you take the ferry to Centre Island, play some frisbee or rent bikes (tandem bikes are available for families that like to embrace their inner nerds). There is mini golf on the island, but most people choose to bring their favourite ball of choice to blow off some steam. Small children will love Centreville, which has a mini zoo, pony rides and lots of rides, even for those who have not hit the usual height requirement. Under four and a half feet? No problem here!
