"One fire engine from Dolphins Barn fire station responded and quickly extinguished the fire."
The team has asked members of the public to contact Gardaí if they notice any suspicious activity in the area.
"We're asking members of the public to report any suspicious behaviour to Gardaí"
Local parents are devastated the play area has been destroyed because it was only built in recent years.
It was also one of the few places children could play in.
They said the people behind the fire have ruined a "sanctuary" for children.
One woman wrote, "So very sad. A child’s escape from reality now becomes a fear they will carry with them in the future."
Another added, "They did the same in Drimnagh, the soft play area was even pulled up off the ground."
"Terrible anti-social behaviour on a new fantastic playground in an area starved of green space," another wrote.
