The City of Bedford has made a number of somewhat odd decisions lately in regards to their parks,…read moreincluding but not limited to the renaming of the Bedford Boys Ranch to Generations Park (a terrible name), going forward with a 70 million dollar park renovation project in the midst of a pandemic that has surely decreased city revenues, and putting in this tiny music park in front of the Old Bedford School. It looks like "Sparkling Ice" in some way sponsored this project, but in the end I think the money could have probably be better spent. The idea is cute: a park with musical instruments that are fun for kids to play but don't offend the parent's ear. Bicentennial Park in Southlake previously did a great job with this. The instruments at both parks have a nice sound - low chimes and soft drums that are actually quite soothing to listen to. The difference between Bicentennial Park and the Musical Pocket Playground is that Bicentennial Park has a traditional park surrounding the music area with slides, swings, etc. The musical instruments are fun and the kids do love them, but it can only hold their attention for so long. There needs to be something else available for play if the park is going to be a repeat destination for young families. What the Musical Pocket Playground does have in close proximity is the library, but with no walkway connecting the library to the music playground, people may not think to stop by when they are picking up their books. If you live in the area, it's worth stopping by to take a look, but I wouldn't plan on spending more than 15 minutes and I certainly wouldn't drive from another city.

There is not a ton of parking nearby but you can park in the neighborhoods or over by the Barbara Bush track before the middle school opens in the mornings. This is also a great destination to view the sunrise or sunset skies and it is colorful with lots of nature. Lots of runners and walkers meet in the area in the mornings to do their daily miles. Bring a flashlight and a buddy if you workout in the earlier hours of the day or towards sunset. But great for families or your furry friends. Thanks, VR for providing wonderful parks and recreation for residents.

With that in mind dont be surprise if you see cayotes, racoons or other woodland critters. There is a slide, swings, merry go round and a water fountain that is turned off during the winter months. They do have some gazebo with picnic tables that you can reserve with the city of fort worth park and recreation. I know this park can get crowded for the holidays like easter but not sure. There are also grills but I would not recommend grilling in these. I have seen some people riding 4x4 buggies so dont get run over. There is no basketball hop last time I checked.
