Savannah's live-oak canopy works fine for strolling the historic squares, but it doesn't cover playground equipment. From May through September, when the humidity turns afternoons oppressive, you need actual shade over the play structures themselves — either from mature trees or built coverage. The playgrounds listed here all deliver that, which narrows your options significantly but means your kids won't burn their legs on metal slides and you won't spend the afternoon watching the clock melt.
