The play structure at Robert M. Davis Park is definitely geared towards toddlers and preschoolers. The entire play structure is lower to the ground then most parks and the steps are shorter for easier access for little ones.
This photo of the back of the play structure shows three ways to climb up onto the structure. There’s a curved set of wire bars, a chain ladder and a curved set of metal steps. All great ways for younger children to practice their gross motor skills.

Tawawa Park is so large with so many areas to play and explore that I recommend looking at the Tawawa map before visiting! We have found 6 different playgrounds with very different play equipment for a wide range of ages. Driving across the very narrow paved road next to Tawawa Lake is the most harrowing thing. No guardrails. No middle lines or edge lines. I do it so that we can get to the 75% of the park and the 5 playgrounds on that side of the park.
The metal slide at Young Cove’s is one off the pieces of equipment located in that area. There is also a large picnic shelter which would be a nice place for a family picnic or birthday party.

One really good thing about homeschooling has been the number of families we have met over the years which has allowed us to find some very unique parks, playgrounds and splash pads to play at! You see we have been invited to several park date playgroups which may have been started by MOPS groups or CC group moms. Since I am friends with mom’s in various groups we get invited to each park date play group every Summer which has allowed us to experience many new parks, playgrounds and splash pads in Miami Valley!
This year we decided to share the park locations that we love in order for more families to discover these playgrounds, natural play areas, and splash pads for yourself. Our goal is to share a new park with you each week all Summer long. The location may be near or a little far from us but if I am willing to drive over 30 minutes then you know it’s well worth it!

Today we are sharing our visit to City Park in Tipp City, Ohio! This park is a wonderful place to visit no matter what the season since there are so many places to be in the shade as well as many benches to rest.
The first piece of equipment my children ran to get on was the Teeter Totter! My youngest son may have only seen this type of equipment one other time in his life! I love that my children can play on playground equipment like when I was a child.

UPDATE: We recently drove by Armory Park and some of the play equipment featured in this post have been removed. Stay tuned Summer of 2018 for an update! We will included updated information soon!
Today we would like to share with you Armory Park Piqua, Ohio. This small park is located on 3 acres and is just down the street from Miami Valley Centre Mall before you get to the center of town. It is fenced in on 3 sides but it appears that it might have been fenced in on all four sides with the way the openings are located.
The one thing that is very unique about this park is the red and blue play structure. This piece of equipment would be great for those kids wanting to pretend they are in American Ninja Warrior training!
