Rosco Playground, Lincoln Park

Great park for younger kids - the play boats are a hit! Also: I really appreciated the squishy soft padded ground when our little one was still wobbly. I always try to bring another toy to play with since there aren't tons of equipment options. The only things to be wary of: there always seems to be a smoker hanging out on the benches outside (nice secondhand smoke for the kids, right), also: with the lake and hungry geese/ducks right by, you'll find yourself wishing you had some bread for your little one to feed the waterfowl.
