Crawler and Toddler Play structures
There are two small play structures designed for smaller people but what I thought was a real treat was how one had a low ramp and a slide with barely any drop to the ground. A crawler or new walker would have no trouble going around and around with no interference needed! Both of these structures were nicely shaded too, so nothing was getting too hot for little hands that might be exploring.
Wason Pond Playground: Make a day of it!
This playground is part of Wason Pond Park and is easily a full day trip if you want it to be. Explore the beach, take a walk around the pond, picnic and relax on the playground until its time to head home. The covered bridge is just across the parking lot from the playground and makes for a great photo op.
