The Folsom, El Dorado Hills, and Cameron Park Libraries
All of these fabulous libraries hold a play area for your little ones to enjoy. The library is one of my absolute favorite places to take my kids because it spans all four of their ages! My older two are content picking out new chapter books, and getting started reading them. Meanwhile, my younger ones check out the picture books before diving into the play kitchens, puzzles, and other fun games waiting. There is never a shortage of free story-times, and programs awaiting you at the library. Even if there isn't a story time currently it's still a fun, kid friendly hangout. I am also able to sneak away for a minute and grab a new book or magazine for myself.
McDonalds, Chick-fil-A, Burger King, Carl's Jr., and Starbucks (Folsom)
Kids will be entertained running, and playing in the large play structures before and after enjoying their food. The McDonald's located by the Folsom outlets has an indoor play area as does the Chick-fil-A on E. Bidwell St. Both restaurants are ideal for lunch spots when it's cold and rainy as well as Burger king, and Carls jr. Lastly, the Starbucks on the corner of Highway 50 and E. Bidwell (by the In-N-Out) has a very small section for young kids filled with a few toys, and a chalkboard(chalk included). (please check covid-19 restrictions at these places)
Palladio 16 Cinemas

A little shopping for mom, and a little play time for the kids equals happiness for all!
