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!

Ok, so if an indoor playground is off the table, how about a trip to a museum? What visions does that bring up for you?

For all of your little future astronauts, you have got to make a quick trip to Westminster, Colorado! Quail Crossing Park is a small playground in a neighborhood just off of 136th & Huron, but it will bring your kiddos so much joy! WHERE IS IT??

If you just find the park on your phone maps, it may take you a block east of where you need to be – the clue is if you end up in a culdesac staring…
