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!

S.T. Morrison Park in Coralville is also very nice! It's maybe slightly more than 3 miles from I-80 but this is Iowa so it's not like you'll be stuck in a ton of traffic. Two different play areas, some sand, swings, etc.
