The Peabody Park





















We went to the Peabody Park (Sponsored by The Peabody of Downtown Little Rock) this weekend and the kids had an amazing time. The park just recently opened (so recently that when we tried a week or two ago it as still being built) and Amie and I were excited to check it out and see what the kids thought. The park is amazing! Instead of the traditional playground it has underground tunnels with ladders and ropes to climb up. It has a huge tunnel slide and a space net climber. It has a lot of imaginative play areas and the kids had so much fun playing there... and it also has a splash pad!!! I have wanted to have one of these for the kids to play at in our town for so long and we finally get one when we are leaving the area. I think it is probably one of the coolest parks I have seen in a long time. We spent the good part of the day there with the kids playing in the park area first, then a bike ride down the path by the river's edge and then back to the splash pad. You can see in the pictures that Rachel recieved her little hand-me-down bike from David this week when he got his big boy bike. She loves it! She actually rides this little bike better than she rides her tricycle. It's cute to watch how excited she gets to ride it.
