Kid Friendly Parks in Urbandale
We will be staying in Urbandale this weekend and dummy me picked a hotel without a pool. Are there any parks nearby that are good for a 1 1/2 year old?
Re: Kid Friendly Parks in Urbandale
We live close to Riley Park at the corner of 53rd Street and Urbandale Avenue, and our 14-month-old DD enjoys the swings, slides, and climbing up & down the stairs of the equipment. There's also a small shelter there & lots of grassy area in which to play.
Grace Lutheran Church just across the street from the park (on the north side of Urbandale Ave) has a little play area behind the building at the back of the parking lot. They have a daycare there, but it has always looked to me like the playground is accessible during nights & weekends -- and is definitely the kind of equipment I think a child that age would enjoy.
I know there are lots of other options that others may be able to share. These are just the 2 I know best.
Have a fun weekend!
Oh crap, Carrie. I never emailed you back! I'm so sorry!
I think you told me where you are staying at that is borderline West Des Moines, right? So maybe Urbandale would be a further drive than you'd want?
But Walker Johnson park is fun and has a little pond area where she could feed the ducks
I'll keep brainstorming...
