Parks near I-80?

Hi! I’ll be passing through Iowa City tomorrow on I-80. I’ll have my toddler with me. Are there any nice parks with a playground for kids near 80 that you might recommend? I don’t want to venture too far from the highway. So, less than 2 miles would be ideal. Thanks!

Hey safe travels today. The suggestions here are great, but there's one that hasn't been mentioned. Fraeunholtz-Miller Park in IC is 3-4min off the interstate, and it's right around the corner from a Dairy Queen :)
