Bowling Green

If your kids are into pirates, this one’s worth the trip. The playground has that swashbuckling theme that genuinely gets children going, and the views from here are the kind you don’t expect to stumble across at a local play spot. Families use it for birthday parties fairly regularly, and it’s easy to see why — there’s enough going on to keep different ages entertained without anyone getting bored halfway through. A solid all-rounder for a proper family day out in Flushing.
