Here is the link to it's website: Kiwanis Tot Lot #3
It's on Scenic Hill between Chicago and Seattle Street.
Things we love about this park:
- 2 swings (one toddler swing and one big kid swing) to accommodate both kiddos
- awesome play structure with:
- 2 small slides that the toddler loves
- one big twirly slide that both kids love
- a suspension bridge to walk across
- at least 3 methods of climbing up
- 2 parallel bars that form a slide for brave big kids
- an Indiana Jones type sliding bar, perfect for pretending you are careening over a pit of snakes
- ground covered with wood chips making for a soft landing when jumping off the structure.
- an animal puzzle that the kids can spin around
- a steering wheel where my toddler likes to pretend she is at Starbucks. She offers me a Venti Iced Mocha every time. That girl knows me too well.
- a few neat old trees with holes in them that look like gnomes could live there
- a path that spans the entire length of the park between Chicago Street and Seattle Street. This makes for a nice cut through on a bike.
- Always well stocked doggy clean up bags. These are well used by the park patrons. We have never seen a dog mess in the park.
- A grassy area for running around/relaxing on.
- Lots of shaded spots for warm days.
- Enough parking on Chicago for 6 cars.
Keep in mind that there is no restroom at this park.
This is a great little neighborhood park. It is situated on a lot in a residential area and you wouldn't necessarily know about it unless you live close by. It's quiet, we are usually the only ones there.
