The answer

The discussion regarding going to children's amusement parks addresses two aspects: The first is the presence of objectionable matters such as mixing (between genders), immodest display, and music. If these are present, it is impermissible to go there. It is only permissible to go if one is able to remove the objectionable matter. It is preferable to go to open fields or gardens far from mixing, or to engage with activities at home. As for the second aspect, it is the presence of statues and idols in the form of animals and the like. This is an objectionable matter, and it is not permissible to allow children to play with them, due to the severe warnings mentioned concerning image-making and the eradication of idols. Permissible toys can be provided at home as an alternative.
