    The small playground
    Alex M.

    Across the street from a neighborhood this park has playgrounds, basketball courts and a huge lawn area to play on. Restrooms are fairly descent which helps. We mostly went for the playground. Two playground areas. One is a smaller side for younger kids. It has a slide, stairs and a bridge for kids to enjoy. The floor is a soft mulch like consistency that helps if kids fall. So that always helps because you know kids will be falling. The bigger playground has more challenging equipment for older kids. They have a couple slides, some sort of a rock wall, sliding pole, monkey bars and balancing activities. Kids enjoy these amenities because it challenges them to think and problem solve on how to get around things or climb things. Good place for kids to enjoy and have fun. If around the are give this place a try.

    The park is kept clean and maintained. It has a large open grass area between baseball diamonds for your free styling!

    Rock climbing for the big kids.

    The last time I was here, my flat in San Francisco had recently burned down, and I had just renewed…read moremy driver's license at the nearby DMV and was talking on the phone to my roommate about getting another government document completely unrelated to my license or the fire, but we were talking about tragedy--real tragedy, not a fire that didn't kill anyone--and I was so stressed out by a lot of things, but the park actually made me feel better, even though I couldn't walk in most of it because they were re-sodding the fields. Adventure Park. It has an early-'90s water-park ring to its name, and while parts of it look like they're from the early '90s, it's just a plain old park with athletic fields, a gym, green space, and some sparse picnic tables. And what would a Whittier-area park be without its obligatory random ravine and/or concrete drainage area? In this case, said concrete drainage area is dangerous-looking for kids and runs right through the park at a right angle. It's fenced off, and there are helpful bridges to cross it, but I wonder why they sited it through the park rather than on one end of it. I'm sure some kids have adventures here, because all parks with grass and play equipment can be fun and create childhood memories. But Whittier has spoiled me with its parks, and while this is technically South Whittier so it's outside of Whittier's borders, it's still close enough that it should feel like a Whittier park, and it most certainly does not. Why? Because it's totally flat. And totally rectangular. When my parents were walking twice a day during COVID lockdowns/curfews, I suggested they visit this park to change up their rotation, which comprised only two or three parks at the time. They said it was OK, and I later came with my mom and realized why it wasn't their favorite. The concrete path isn't totally straight, so there's some variety, but there isn't much shade along the path. There's lots of parking, and it serves its purpose as a neighborhood park, but it could be so much better.

    There's signs explaining the history of the Native Americans and what they used. I thought it was…read moreinteresting how much of the elderberry/elderflower tree they used for tools. There's also an area that goes into urban runoff and the rain garden. It's a small but cute park with a basketball court and a playground on one side. I would have stayed longer, but it was really warm, even in the late afternoon.

    La Mirada Community Park in La Mirada, California has a really lively and refreshing atmosphere…read morethat I enjoyed when I visited with someone. I saw a lot of teenagers there, and the whole place feels energetic in a way that teenagers would love. The open fields, walking areas, and places to sit don't cost anything at all, which makes it easy to relax and have fun without needing a plan. I didn't realize how much there was to enjoy until I walked around and saw how naturally welcoming the park feels. It surprised me how comfortable it was to just be there without feeling rushed. Even though it's just a community park, it gives teenagers a great place to hang out, take pictures, play sports, or just be creative outdoors. I only visited La Mirada Community Park one time in my life before making this review, but it ended up being one of the most relaxed and youthful places I've been to in a long time. I never doubted that the experience would turn out the way I hoped it would. I've lived for 24 years, but in the summer of 2024 I learned that I'm still physically and mentally 18 years old, and that my prefrontal cortex is more developed than the average 25‑year‑old's. Maybe that's why I connect so much with places that feel playful and full of energy. I would highly recommend that teenagers go to this park because it gives them a fun, open space to enjoy themselves and feel creative.

    We came to this park because it's large and wanted to check if it would be a good spot for photos…read more I loved how open it felt and that there were tons of activities going on. There are multiple baseball fields as well as a disc golf course, which was cool to see. Another big plus is that parking is free and plentiful!
