    This playground was recommended by my son's chiro's office. Just as a place to go, nothing chiro…read morespecial about it. There is a lot of large equipment, but not a whole lot of variety or imagination in the different interactive functions. Reeves Park's playground (Phoenixville), Smith Memorial Playground (Fairmount Park), Freedom Playground (Haverford), and Aston Twp's new playground all have really imaginitive stuff, and just as large of an expanse (if not larger). I also have to give props to the Reeves Park and Freedom playgrounds for being fenced in (Smith is, but it's so big, the fence is not as containing as it could be). Kids Dream is not fenced, unfortunately, because it is a layer of safety I always appreciate, for young kids who run, and also just to keep out wandering dogs (the ones on a long leash whose caretakers aren't paying attention) or to dissuade sketchy people from hanging around (sorry but they're everywhere). There is a nearby walking trail, and it's also adjacent to township offices (shared parking lot). I do have to comment that there was a bit of litter generally around, which is never okay for a kids' playground. Also, this playground is pretty crowded. Parents seemed adequately considerate, but honestly, all the abovementioned playgrounds had a better vibe to me. Maybe because this place was built up by my recommendation and the reviews, but it wasn't as great as my expectations (and comparative experiences).

    Fantastic playground!! Huge plenty of options of what to play on. Love it! Will be back for sure…read more Not far from the shopping areas. Conveniently located.

If you want your small children to nap, then have them walk up the steps to the slides a dozen times. There is a nice variety of playground equipment for all ages including swings, a 3 person seesaw, spinning/ climbing thing, etc. All the equipment has a castle theme which is super cute. I love that the entire playground is fenced in with fences high enough that young kids definitely cannot get over. The fencing around the steps/ platforms for the slides is also super safe to prevent falls. I feel totally comfortable letting my kids walk up and slide down by themselves while I wait at the bottom. Bathrooms nearby are better than most playgrounds. The only downside is that there isn't a lot of shade. Some benches are shaded but none of the playground equipment is shaded so you feel like you're baking on a hot day. There are covered benches at the entrance of the playground for parents. But your kids will have so much fun that they'll barely notice how hot they are.

    This 6 mile trail is full of pleasant surprises; it's one of the more interesting and versatile…read moretrails to ride on.  We started at the Warwick Twp Municipal Park, which itself has a pleasant 3/4 mile paved loop. Plenty of space at the parking lot which also boasts a Bike Share! It's a self-service bike rental for which you can pay online for 2 or 4 hours of use. If you cross the street, the trail is supposed to continue for another 3/4 miles. So in all you have about 7.5 miles of trail to work with in this domain. The trailhead is just behind the Bike Share. The surface is mostly smooth crusted stone until you reached the Ephrata Linear Park portion which is fully paved -- and lighted!  I am now really curious if I should come back and check it out at night one of these days.   The trail is mostly wooded, at least on one side. It passes through Amish farms - you can also tell by the aeromatic air as you pass through them? So many silos in sight along the way, you can even make it a point to count them! You will ride past the Gnome Village, Winters statue, and some interesting murals. There is also a bike park, not sure if it's free to ride through it, but there was a birthday party going on at the time and we got a treat watching young kids getting airborne. There's one "permanent" porta potty on the Ephrata side of the trail. The trail ends at the Main St in Ephrata. It's such a contrast coming out of the trail, as we suddenly immersed into "civilization"!  Seriously, our eyes literally lit up at the sight of downtown Ephrata which is surprisingly quaint, especially with the fall foliage still lingering.   It was such a delightful experience. All of the roads we had to cross had very little traffic, and the drivers were all so courteous and stopped for the bikers.  The only slightly negative was the trail was noticeably crowded. But it's totally understandable as it was a sunny, pleasant, 72 degree weather on a Saturday in November!   We were so blessed!

    We rode from Warwick township building where there was lots of parking through the countryside to…read moreMain Street in Ephrata and visited the MCC thrift store on Main A bike rack right beside the buggy shed !
