What’s the Best Playground Equipment?

“Monkey bars!”, shouts my little orangutan with a wild grin.Her friends compete for top tarzan skills, and at five years old, she can easily tell you the New West parks with the ‘good’ monkey bars.

So it was  no surprise to see monkey bars rank well on a dot survey taken by Hyack Interactive during Summerfest at Grimston Park last weekend.

But give folks a lovely, hot, sunny day, and the winning votes go to the Spray Park and Pool, with special mention to Zip-lines. Both are top notch at Grimston Park.  Other favorite suggestions can be found in many local parks including: basketball hoops, volleyball net, trees, field, spaceships, rainbows, lollipops and smiles!

Some New West playgrounds have recently updated equipment, so if you haven’t explored lately, visit a new-to-you park, and tell us about YOUR favorite playground equipment! info@kidsnewwest.ca

 

Hyack Interactive was at Summerfest this year encouraging parents to lend their voices in the development of family service facilities for west side neighbourhoods. If you’d like to know more, or complete the west side survey:  http://kidsnewwest.ca/westsidesurvey/
