Area: East Whitby
Age Range: infant and up
Parking: street parking on Kirby Crescent
Ground Cover: mulch
Main Equipment:
Accessibility Features: bucket swing, saucer swing, toddler music station, toddler mulch station
Facilities/Other:
Surrounding Park Area: a small green space behind the playground with a trail leading to the softball diamond and seasonal portable washroom
Seating: 3 park benches facing the playground (NOT there when we visited August 2017, but the foundations for them have been poured), plus concrete wall with built in seating facing the larger play structure
Shade: no shade over the playground, plenty of shade in the surrounding trees
Overall assessment: The toddler structure here is AMAZING! There are so many hidden features that we loved taking our time to explore them all. Bring your car or ball to this park as there is a hidden track around the top of the toddler structure that you can drive or roll things along! We have included two videos below, but the rest of the features of this small play structure you will have to explore on your own. The bigger play structure is great for climbing, hanging and balancing. The tall slide with bumps was a huge hit for our preschooler (although a little tough to get to as there is only one ladder type climber and some toddlers will find it difficult). With a seasonal washroom just a short walk away, this is a good park to spend a couple of hours exploring and we will definitely be back to show off the toddler structure to our friends!
