Breckinridge Park

A restroom & THE BIG PLAYGROUND!  (This is at the 3rd entrance/parking lot.)

We could have a birthday party there!

...and a picnic over there.

 This is the little kid side, but I still like the monkey bars.

See the baby slides?

This is the big kid side - I'm a BIG kid!

There are 2 rock walls!

Weeeeee!

Look at these silly stairs.

I didn't get to swing this time.

Here's a place to play soccer, or fly a kite!

The other playground & a lake!  (This is at the 2nd entrance/parking lot & a little hidden from the parking lot.)

This one looks fun!

The Princess & Little Miss are here too!!

Heights Park

This is for "my age" kids.
Look ((giggle)), it's a tree trunk mommy.
I like to play music.

I like this window thing.

This is for big kids, but I liked it more.

I need to rest.

Look, it's a spider web.

See the big sandbox?? It's huuuuge.

Swinging is fun.

There's tennis. AND basketball.

Baseball!!!

I had to go peepee.

Can we have a picnic?

We can have a picnic there too.

Mommy said this bridge goes to the splash park, but we couldn't go there.

Mommy says: Heights Park in Richardson, TX (Floyd & Arapaho) has a fairly new, really cool playground (although, it's not nearly as cool as it once was) & lots of other great amenities. There are 2 covered pavilions, lots of picnic tables tennis courts, baseball fields, a basketball goal, plenty of open green space, a pool, recreation center, and a splash park. There is a restroom, and a working water fountain, and plenty of benches. There is a creek running through the middle of the park and the hills near it are steep enough that you need to keep an eye on younger kids that are inclined to running.

Mimosa Park

Another guest reviewer strikes! This review includes 4 special little guys. Thanks for the help guys!

An adorable 3 year old, but he's not happy with the lack of bounce on this guy.

Covered picnic tables, baby swings, and the 2-seater ride-on. This backs up to a creek, with houses on the other side. There is also an uncovered picnic table nearby.

Swing, a bench for mom (or dad), & in the distance you can see the baseball field.
The structure for smaller kids. Our guest writer's 2 year olds loved this. There are also tennis courts to the left.

This is for the bigger kids (our guest writer's 3 & 5 year old enjoyed this one). It is separated from the smaller structure by the swings.

The big kids' play structure, baseball field, & the restroom.

Mimosa Park in Richardson (Mimosa & Apache) has a light baseball field, two tennis courts, a multi-purpose athletic field, picnic tables, play structures, and a restroom.

*Off-topic note: sorry we haven't been featuring anything new recently, our past few months have been hectic. We are hoping to be back on track very soon - we have a lot of catching up to do & The Boy is ready to see some new parks!*

Foxboro Park

Let's go!
This one is for ages 2-5, that's me!

This one is for ages 5-12, but I liked it too!

This cool thing is in the middle.

This was my favorite part.

I want to play soccer back there.

Next time we can have a picnic over there.
