Swing into Space at Westmoor Park in Greeley!
After a full day of touring playgrounds, we almost missed one of the best, Westmoor Park in Greeley! Luckily, I happened to be chatting with another parent at Aven’s Village playground (definite must see as well) and she recommended we go to “the spaceship park”. The kids were dragging with exhaustion, but the minute they spotted the swing zipline, they took off running! Aven’s Village at Island Grove Park is a must see playground in Greeley too!

Introducing the Best Park in Superior!
No offense to the other playgrounds nearby, but the girls have decided that Wildflower Park is the “best park in Superior”! With our current environment of social distancing, the first thing I noticed was the size of the play area – it’s huge! Each element is separated allowing families to spread out if needed, but aside from distancing, it also gives it that open feel perfect for enjoying a Colorado day!

Sandstone Ranch: Adventure Playground and Wheels Park
Upon entering Sandstone Ranch Park, you are greeted with a sign sharing that it is an “Adventure Playground and Wheels Park”. What a fun sounding experience ahead! Our first few times visiting Sandstone Ranch were for our school’s 100 Mile Club. The 0.7 mile path was perfect to get in some extra miles, but it was the promise of the “cow and turtle playground” that got the girls moving. As you’ll see below, the park is not only home to traditional playground equipment, it also has a farm themed toddler area, splash pad and skate park!
