    This four star rating defies my rules for rating playgrounds, but rules are meant to be broken…read more.. Exits: I usually prefer one. This one technically has zero as the playground isn't really fenced in: there are trees and bushes to the rear of it, and in front of it are basketball/handball courts and two grassy areas to either side. But because it is so far removed from the street and the benches offer a relatively clear, panoramic view of the entire playground, I feel comfortable taking my three kids here. Population density: I prefer small groups to large crowds, and this fits the bill, as far as the playground itself goes. Only a handful of kids, so it isn't too hard to spot yours. Play options: Very large play area with four slides and a number of things to climb on and over. There are a set of swings off to the left and just beyond the swings is a workout area for adults (or six year olds, if you have a son like mine). A water sprinkler in front of the play area makes for a fun diversion on a hot day, but just be sure to bring towels and flip flops. Overall safety: "Creep" factor is questionable. Open parks and plenty of benches attract adults without kids, so just make sure your kids know never to go with anyone else and always keep an eye on them. But distance from the street definitely helps, especially if you have little ones who are runners. It is pretty easy to find street parking by this playground, which also works in its favor. A word to the wise: Mr. Softee always comes by, so bring small bills.

    We live right by this park. When the kids were little we we're there nearly every day. Now they are…read morea little older and have out grown it. It's still a nice park with swings, jungle gyms, and slides. There are two levels. One is a playground with a basketball court. The upper level is a lush green space. On snowy days you can go sledding on the hill at the upper level. Some downsides are there are several entrances to the playground and when you have multiple small children it is easy to lose track of them. There are many nooks and crannies they can hide in and give mothers panic attacks when they seemingly "disappear". That said it's still a great park with lots of space for little kids to play in.

    A nice neighborhood park in Forest hills that has many entrances with a gate that wraps around the…read moreblock with sections of the park that has the playground area for the kiddies , section for the dogs to roam and the basketball area to shoot some hoops with many benches all around to sit and soak all in . The parks dept keeps the park safe and clean and it's surrounded by many buildings steps away so the locals don't have to travel much to get here ..While cuz is doing his basketball groove with his friends, I am doing the bench warmer dance and enjoying the nice weather as well .4.5 stars on my yelp meter.

    Yellowstone Municipal Park - So sad that these parks are closed. Hopefully they will be reopening again soon.
