One thing we love about being in Warsaw is that there is plenty to do with kids. There are incredible parks everywhere. Some have playgrounds, some don't. There are plenty of indoor play areas as well. Restaurants even have play areas and staff that are there is watch and entertain your kids while you eat! Now we have not been out to eat much but this is pretty awesome and takes some of our excuses away for why we don't get out much. Back in September Little Lady and I visited the park that is near the embassy. It was gorgeous. Plenty of beautiful flowers, a decent playground, large pond with ducks to visit, and a gazebo to enjoy the view in. We strolled around the pond, soaking in the sunshine and fall colors and then met up with S for some lunch and a tour of the embassy. It was our first time riding the bus or visiting the city at all so it was a great day out.

Later in the month we tried a different playground somewhat near our house. It was located by a large church and had great gardens all around. I will call it the space playground until I find out what others call it. It had a space theme on the ground so it makes sense. There was a fenced in area for the small kids and another fenced in area for the bigger kids. This bigger kid area had a large tower to climb and then slide down slides on various levels. It also had a spinning wheel, climbing structure, and a few other fun things.The little kids area had a sand pit to play in, and play structure. I was most impressed by the gardens to walk through and there was even a ropes course in the trees for even bigger kids. How cool is that?

Then, a few weeks ago...ok a month ago...We had probably our last semi decent day to go to the playground. We went to a new one with some of our playgroup friends. The Dinosaur Park as everyone calls it is great. There is a separate fenced in area for the little ones inside of the main fenced in park. Plenty of great things to climb on and even a small zip line! All of which resonate with the dinosaur theme. Little Lady had a blast and we will definitely be going back when it warms up a bit...or the sun shines again. I am very excited to get back to warmer weather and spent plenty of time exploring the beautiful parks of this city.
