Kiddieland Amusement Park, Amusement park in Melrose Park, Illinois, United States
The park contained rides specifically designed for children, including a miniature train, carousels, and the Little Dipper roller coaster at its North Avenue location.
Operating from 1929 until 2009, Kiddieland Amusement Park served generations of families before its transformation into a commercial development with a Costco warehouse.
Multiple generations of Illinois families formed memories at this entertainment venue, which specialized in children's birthday celebrations and seasonal events throughout the year.
The former site of Kiddieland Amusement Park stood at coordinates 41.9094° N and 87.8364° W, accessible from downtown Chicago through local transportation routes.
The Little Dipper roller coaster, rescued from demolition, found a new home at another location, while the original park sign now resides at Melrose Park Library.
