Mt. Eboshi Park

Yesterday we took a little drive up Mt. Eboshi. There is an outdoor adventure park near the top. It is based around children's activities, so taking Jackson was a blast.
They have a huge tunnel. Here is Jackson near the entrance, it went on forever. Perfect for a boy that can run and run.
Regular playground equipment. Jackson on the see-saw with his dad. He loved it!
Check out this slide monstrosity!!
On the swing with dad.
This looked like it was so much fun. Jackson was still too little to climb it, but I still wanted a picture. I would have loved it as a kid. Although I'm sure kids get injured on it all the time.
They had a whole building with wood floors dedicated to cars and little trikes for little guys. Outside they had a huge track for older kids and bikes and pedal cars available for them. But I thought it was great that they catered to both age groups. Jackson loved steering this car and honking it's horn.
Ahhh...the ball pool. This was amazing! It was literally like an outdoor swimming pool with rubber lining....filled with thousands of balls. They also had huge bouncy balls to play with and different soft rubber toys floating around in the sea of balls. It was an indoor area, so using it in the winter will be a fun too.
And the coolest thing of all, the slide. Jackson spent most of his time going down the slide into the balls. Other activities available were: a rollerblading trail around the park, go karts, mini golf, a giant sand box with neat ride on diggers, a hill with a ski lift and sleds to ride down on AstroTurf (also used in the winter time with snow for sledding and skiing) The park was pretty much free, although you could rent gear for super cheap to use. I can't believe we found such a jewel. We had such a great day together that on the way home we talked about doing it again next weekend. And these days anything that we can do for fun that wears our little tornado out is a great thing in my book. He fell asleep in the car on the way home.
