Childrens Playground

The gear here is a bit different from your standard cookie-cutter setup — the climbing structure in particular gets kids genuinely interested rather than bored after five minutes. There’s a sandbox and slides too, so younger ones are well covered. Shade trees and covered seating mean you can actually sit comfortably while the kids do their thing, which Berkeley summers make you appreciate fast. Picnic tables make it easy to stretch a visit into a proper afternoon out. Good condition, good shade, suits pretty much any age — it’s one of those spots locals keep coming back to.
