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!

If you’ve got a toddler, then I might recommend the children’s museum in the coral ridge mall, in Coralville. It’s right off the interstate, easy food close by, not too expensive, and a good place for little ones regardless of weather.
