    Central Park in Denver, the Perfect Blend of Old and New!

    If you’ve been to Central Park in Denver before, you’ll recognize a few elements in that newly refurbished playground! The triple bouncer near the entrance, “supernova” spinner and giant climbable boulders were all kept from the original design. If you loved the old purple hills, there are new turf-covered hills that give that same feel without the wear and tear! The play equipment provides something for everyone and all ages will have a blast enjoying the new Central Park!

    Fairgrounds Park has a Splash Pad, Extra Playground and More!

    I was blown away on our visit to Fairgrounds Park this summer! I knew that it had a splash pad, but I had no idea that we’d find playgrounds, a fitness zone, batting cages…the list goes on and on as you’ll see below. Plan on spending hours in the area and don’t forget your swimsuits, towels, sunscreen and water! NOTE: This is a large park with a running river and splash pad so it is not a park that you can just let your kids go play. You will need to keep eyes on kids of all ages and experience it together, safely. This post may contain affiliate links and…

    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!
