One of - okay THE - nicest playground I've been to so far…read more It is always clean. There are plenty of benches for weary caregivers to rest while the kids run around and burn off that endless supply of energy. There are two play structures, both with slides and an array of climbing structures separated by a fence. One side for tots and one for older kids. There's a substantial set of swings (6 total - one for all ages). The playground is adjacent to a set of large baseball fields, tennis and basketball courts. There is no parking lot but I've never had trouble finding an on street space on beautiful LaGrange street. Its proximity to the plenty of shops and restaurants along Centre Street lend to making the visit to the playground a multi-purpose outing. I know how much effort it took to get the kids loaded up and out the door - so let's make the most of it! While it can get busy, it's never been so overwhelmingly crowded that my introverted personality couldn't handle it. I've always been very comfortable with the amount of kids and guardians. This is our favorite playground in the city so far, it has become our regular spot.

It gets quite crowded so consider going early and not on a holiday or school vacation week. Also, my kid is only 3 so I went with her throughout the playspaces. There are often older kids who tend to be less than mindful of younger kids. Finally, their new claw machines are a complete rip off. They are able to "grab" but as soon as they start lifting, the stuffed animals fall. This happened across multiple machines that we tried and I watched several kids experience the same.

Toddlers get a sand pit in addition to a fun train and slide structure. The only things to call out are that there isn't as much shade for some of the main play areas and the tiered levels layout of the playground makes it difficult to keep an eye on multiple kids.

A few more picnic tables would be nice, but there's plenty of grass space and there are 2 separate playgrounds. The structures could use some updating, but overall it's a nice little park.

Some of the stuff is a little run down/dirty but considering it's free you really can't complain. There are many repeat toys in case it's crowded there should be something for everyone. Fair amount of shade makes this a nice place to hang out even on a hot day. I like the benches and tables for families as well as the water fountains.

It has two large connected play structures, a swing set, see-saw, a sand box, tons of toys and bikes that have been generously donated for a chance at a second life. The place gets crazy busy though. The after work crowd on a weekday is enough to incite a panic attack - especially for a newbie playground mom like myself, and quite frankly, I'm petrified of even trying to go on a weekend. That's not to say there isn't room for everyone, though. With the plethora of benches and tables, there really is room for everyone. D There are tons of abandoned (okay: "donated") toys left around - for the sand box and for kids to ride on, play in, etc. which adds to the play options. I love the access from here to the pond; it makes taking a walk around the pond before or after the playground a nice option. Not to mention all the shops and restaurants right on Center Street as well. There is easily accessible parking behind the playground - it is the public parking lot in JP behind Blanchards. It is 2 hours only, but that is usually more than enough time to get in and out of the playground. It's nice to not have to troll around for a parking spot.

I ordered chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream, but they intentionally gave me plain vanilla ice cream, and then cackled with glee that they'd tricked me.

Finally, one employee relented and gave me the ice cream I ordered, but the other employee kept snatching it away and eating it herself. 0/5 stars for the ice cream parlor.
