    The green space
    Brett T.

    This is a great open space in the city for sports or any other sort of relaxation and recreation. My friends and I play kickball here on the open AstroTurf. There's also basketball courts, playground equipment and a fountain area. It's in a great area too with restaurants, bars and shops nearby. I'd recommend you check it out if you're in the area.

    Summer children's concert series

    Great little park near Dupont! During the month of July, the Friends of Stead Park are hosting free Saturday morning concerts on the big lawn for little ones with local kids' entertainers. I love community things like that! The playground itself is split into a few different areas. There is a play area for little ones, and another play area for bigger kids (although the age recommendations are a little strange...my 2 year old was very comfortable on the "big kid" playground equipment, but it said the suggested ages were 6-12 years). There is also a very small but baby and toddler friendly splash area. Like most DC parks/playgrounds, I wish there were more shaded sitting areas for parents!

    Palisades

    Along the Potomac River northwest of Georgetown is a close-knit community called The Palisades…read more This is its recreation center. There's a small parking lot in the front and trails that lead to an actual recreation center, fields and a playground that doubles as a splash park in the summer. My four-year-old daughter loved the playground. It's modeled after an Indigenous American village along the Potomac River with slides, etc. For being in a wealthy neighborhood, it's a little run down, but still a lot of fun. If you like quirky art, take the small dirt path to the right when facing the parking lot. Walk a few yards to a small opening in the forest to find the "Glass Forest" with art hanging on the trees. It's a little creepy, but also quirky!

    Hmmm...I suppose I was assuming this playground would be more than it was given the area…read more The good: *a couple slides, things to climb on *dedicated parking lot *fitness equipment *skate park (definitely check this out) The issues: *the equipment is old and run down: pieces of the padded floor are all over the place and kids throw them *back to those kids and why we won't be back....where are the parents, nannies, guardians, SOME adult?! There were lots around but no one was telling their kid to not throw pieces of the ground at people. My son was excited about the slide....until he was trampled while going down it by 4 kids (at least 8 years old so they should know better anyways) running up the slide. This hasn't ever been an issue before since caretakers are usually at least sort of watching their kids but nope not here. Overall the equipment was boring and the playground way beyond capacity, particularly during these times. Not a fan, won't be back.
