This playground is made for running, sliding and just having fun. We went on a Saturday morning in March and had the whole place to ourselves, but there would have been plenty of room for more. There are 8 swings for the big kids, and 8 sings with todders seats. They have one of those new playground sets with 3 slides. But they even have the really high metal slides I use to play on when I was a kid.
This is the only playground I have gone to that still has one, my husband found a playground out in Chester county with one, a merry-go-round. It's one of those metal ones that I am sure most parent would be scared to let their kids play on, but since we were the only ones there and I didn't have to worry about any other kids knocking my 4 year old twins on the ground, I let them go at it!
There are plenty of benches to sit an watch your kids.
The only con I found, which prevented me from giving 5 stars, the opening at the gates are very large. For my 2 year old they were just calling to her to run through. They lead right onto the street. Which made for several nervous moments. But needless to say Jarrett Playground is a great place to let your kids run wild. Of if it snows there's a large hill that would be great for sledding. read more
