Donald Duck's Playground is an educational video game published by Sierra On-Line in 1984. The player takes the role of Donald Duck, whose job is to earn money so that he can buy playground items for his nephews. To do this, Donald can get himself a job in any of four different workplaces. Each job shift lasts from one to eight minutes, as the player chooses, during which time Donald must earn as much as possible.

Donald Duck's Playground was originally written for the Commodore 64 and subsequently ported to Sierra's AGI interpreter for the Apple II, PC compatibles, Amiga, and Atari ST. A version for the TRS-80 Color Computer followed as well.
