The Best Playground

The park near our house has the best playground for little kids. There's a water spigot that flows into a series of wooden troughs down into the sand. Every time I walk by, there's at least one toddler having a blast. On warmer days, there will be a good 15 bikes with attached baby seats parked on the sidewalk as moms from the neighborhood bike to the park to let their kids get messy. It's right next to a big grassy area, so a lot of families make an afternoon out of it, with a picnic, games, and fun at the playground. Kids love to put sand in the troughs and make sand pits and canals, and moms love that they can easily wash off their sandy kids in the spigot. Walking by always makes me smile!
