Such a GREAT playground and park. Just went for the first time and my son loved it. It’s actually safe for young kids nothing is too high for them to fall off of when they are playing on the playground. Also LOVE that there are the lower kids friendly hand rails on all the playground walkway and stairs. So much nicer when my 15 month old can do the stairs on his own! Really wonderfully designed.
