Swimming / water parks in northeast MD?

Hello, we'll be visiting northeastern MD (specifically the Forest Hill area) from the DC area with our kids (ages 9 and 6).

We are looking for age-appropriate water activities to do with them. Unfortunately, my searching hasn't found any water parks (other than Great Wolf Lodge) and it doesn't look like any state parks have swimming areas other than Elk Neck State Park (which would be about an hour out of our way in the wrong direction). Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm sure I've missed things as I'm not at all familiar with the area.

Anything from Forest Hill down to the Baltimore area would be welcome.

Thanks in advance!!

Laura Ingalls Wilder's grave in Mansfield, MO [OC]

Was there about 10 years ago. The headstone looks surprisingly modern! I would assume maybe this wasn't the original stone but I don't know for sure.

Her (and her husband's) gravesite was covered in sticks of penny candy (iykyk), small fresh flowers, pebbles, a couple of tin cups (again, iykyk) and -- this may have touched me the most -- pens.
