Griffith Park
2022 Apr 29
Separate play areas for younger and older children with multiple sections in each. There is a pavilion with lots of tables and bathrooms. If the bathrooms are locked, the government building has bathrooms and water fountains available. It is a shared parking lot so check signs for restricted parking, but a quick walk from the train station and museum.
Mainly tires and wood playscapes, with lots to climb and swing. There is also a zip line. Our four year old and us adults enjoyed it!
We recently discovered this park which seems fairly new. They have two play areas, perfect for different ages and abilities. Also, a disc swing, toddler, regular swings, and swings that are like a merry go round. Some of the areas are shaded, but the larger structure does get hot by late morning in the summer.

Update Feb 2022: the sun feels lovely in the colder weather. Easy access to neighborhoods, rt 7, and Happy Tart/Target.

Update Aug 2022: the swings that go in a circle get quite hit by mid day - we swing them around empty to cool them off. Plenty of places to sit and picnic in the shade.
Town Green

I love Town Green when I need a place to sit and chat or eat a picnic, packed from home or picked up from a nearby restaurant. There are ample benches, some tables, and lots and grass so finding a place is easy. There are also public facilities and water fountains.
