Mountjoy Park, Oshawa


The Lowdown on the Playground:

My little loved this park. Lots of different things to climb and plenty of running space. Also great to have 8 swings. I'm going to give it 4 stars because I wasn't blown away. Side note: there were a lot of bees around the trash cans when we went.

Older Kid Structure:

Made for 5+ but my 3-year-old still managed it with my supervision. If there were older kids sharing it I may not have wanted him to risk it as the ladders suspended poles could be too dangerous for a little one. More challenging climbing options and single spiral slide. This structure also has a small "zip-line" and balancing beam. Cedar chip base. 

Younger Kid Structure:

4 metal slides (2 side by side) and easier climbing options, including a simple rock climb, a curved pole ladder and a small. One two-seater teeter totter shaped like a motorcycle. Also a cedar chip base.
