Have you seen our new Slides and Sunshine journal and sketchbook?! ☀️ This is the perfect gift for the kiddos in your lives! There are prompts to write about 50 adventures (new playgrounds, family hike, road trip stops) and space to draw, tape in pictures, add stickers, and remember favorite moments ❤️. Get yours here!
Age Recommendations: In my opinion, this playground will be great for ages 2 to 8. The play structure above is for the older ages (5 to 12), however, everything else is more geared toward the younger kids.
Inclusive Features: Unfortunately, there are no ramps or rubber surfacing for easier accessibility. All kids will love the giant bugs and insects but beyond that, there aren’t many sensory or musical features.
Swings: There are two baby swings and 4 traditional belt swings.
Water Features: None.
Unique Features of Romans Park
The nature theme runs throughout the entire play area with logs instead of plastic poles, caterpillars to climb, and a toadstool table and chairs.
You’ll feel like you just took a trip into “Honey, I Shrunk the Kids” with the giant sized butterfly, caterpillar and bumblebee!
On the other side of the tennis courts, you will find these beautifully painted mushroom benches. You will also find a tribute to E.P. “Packy” Romans, the park’s namesake and Director of Englewood Parks and Recreation for almost 40 years!
