1) Guy Mason Community Center – Glover Park
Kids and caregivers love this playground! Tons of cool features plus a large free parking lot at the Rec Center! Unique features:Sandpit for littles and more challenging ropes and climbing features. Also the parking lot borders the Vice President’s residence which is so cool to see as you drive up! (What other playground can say that?!) 🚻 Restrooms are at the rec center but not open yet to the public. We use this car potty for my 8 and 4-year-olds and loved this toddler car potty when they...
2) Beauvoir Playground
Unique, nature-inspired, challenging, terraced, and huge! This playground is a part of the National Cathedral Elementary school. I found a tiny coin size sign that said the equipment is from a German company and it certainly feels European! I loved the challenging areas (and the fastest slide my kids have ever been on!!) and also little kid areas. Favorite part? So hard to say, maybe all the areas for imaginative play (caves, rocks, etc), skiing stone gargoyle, the zip line or hearing all the...
3) Chevy Chase Rec Center
Unique features:The Chevy Chase Rec Center or as my kids now call it, THE TOY PLAYGROUND! There are so many fun bikes, trikes, play kitchens and toys to play with! The splash pad was so much fun and the playground is really large. 🚻 – Clean restrooms with soap! 🅿️ – Street parking but lots of it even on a weekend morning. 😷 – Lots of kids and parents on a weekend morning but everyone was spacing out and lots of masks. ♿️ – Wheelchair and stroller accessible park but not the play structures...
Turtle Park is a gem of a neighborhood playground and is just a short walk from the Spring Valley shops and restaurants on Massachusetts Avenue, including Millie's, Compass Coffee, and Bluestone Lane. 📍- 45th St NW & Van Ness St NW, Washington, DC 20016 🚻 - Usually clean and conveniently located in the Rec Center building (exterior door is righ...
1) Turkey Thicket Recreation Center – Brookland
When I first published this list, I had multiple people tell me we had to visit Turkey Thicket and I am so glad they told me! This was such a fun neighborhood park with tons of structures, a great theme and some big shady trees for snack time. Bonus: just down the street from the Franciscan Monasteryfor a fun morning out! Unique features:Train structure with lots of more challenging climbing features like a hill to get to the slide, in and outside of the train and a cool hill area with artifi...
2) RFK Stadium – The Fields
The Fields Playground at RFK Stadium has been on my bucket list for a while now and it lived up to the hype! Located near soccer fields along the Anacostia River, all 3 of us loved this playground! The toddler area is off to the side of the bigger kids area which is great for multiple-age kiddos. Unique features:Orb Merry Go Round was so cool! Hammock thing that we later learned from a very talented preteen, is meant for practicing surfing 🏄♀️ ! Tons of climbing structures and hills. 🚻 Re...
3) Rosedale Rec Center Playground
One of the most unique playgrounds in DC with a mini version of the National Mall including the Capitol, White House, MLK monument, Hirshhorn, Air and Space and Natural History museum. They also have a cool musical instruments space that actually worked! And a huge picnic pavilion. Please note:I spotted some unsavory drawings on the mini Lincoln monument…kids didn’t notice just a heads up!) 🚻 Restrooms are at DC Parks are not open yet to the public. We use this car potty for my 8 and 4 yea...
1) Pirate Ship – Anacostia River Park
The Pirate Ship Playground just across the river is a great, unique spot! It’s located in Anacostia Park SE right off 295, easy to stop by on your way into Maryland or DC. Unique features:My kids loved playing on top and inside this super cool pirate ship! I loved the views of the river and an outdoor fitness station with 18 machines for adults to use while their kids play. The only downside is that since its only 1 play structure, we left a little earlier than our normal play time when the...
1) Hains Point – East Potomac Park
If you are looking for a playground with wide-open spaces, easy parking, restrooms and 2 playgrounds… check out Hains Point! It is located on East Potomac Park and is perfect for an outing with playground plus climbing trees, watching planes and going for a walk or bike ride. Unique features: 🚻 Restrooms are open in the brick building behind the playgrounds. 😷 Lots of space to distance. 2 playgrounds right next to each other so when one got a little busy (7 or 8 kids) we went to the smaller...
We've loved this travel pottyfor both my kids. You can use a grocery plastic bag or two instead of buying the expensive liners.Good idea to have a sand bucket and shovel in the car for the playgrounds that have sand pits (and this onehas a great carrying case)My favorite kid's sunscreen is ThinkSport 50 UPF.It is rated #2 on the EWG independent testing score.And finally, if you are looking for more Parks to explore that are great for kids but without playgrounds, check out my 26 Social Distancing Spots in the DMV!Aug 18, 2023 · Rosedale Recreation Center Playground (1701 Gales St. NE, Washington, D.C.)
