Telford Park

7/9/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture
Area: North Ajax

Age Range: infant to about age 5

Parking:  some street parking on Telford Street
weekends: Vimy Ridge public school parking lot across the street

Ground Cover: mulch

Main Equipment:
  • 2 metal slides (1 is a wider toddler one)
  • 2 infant swings
  • climbing ramp

Accessibility Features: none

Facilities/Other:
  • close to seasonal portable washroom at Vimy Ridge park (5min walk North)

Surrounding Park Area: A small green space around the playground

Seating: 4 park benches facing the playground

Shade: none over the playground itself, but some in the surrounding small trees

Overall assessment: A toddler friendly park with a wide toddler friendly slide is the best when teaching young kids playground safety (like sliding feet first). And we can't believe there are four park benches here, which is perfect for meeting up with other young families for park play and snacks! Our 13 month old had no problem climbing the stairs and once we taught her how to go feet first down the slide, this circuit entertained her for a good fifteen minutes (see video below, although we don't recommend siblings catching at the bottom usually). It's also a great toddler park because there is a seasonal portable washroom only a 5 minute walk North to Vimy Ridge park.
