At this point in the summer, you and the kiddos may be burned out of the usual swings and slides of your home base park.  Plus, if you are like us, we’ve been using some school playgrounds as parks and can’t visit during the day with the kids back in session.  What to do?  Explore some new ground to keep things interesting.  Here are some destination parks to check out.

• Homestead Park is located near Hilliard in Washington Township.  It has playgrounds (some with water fun) as well as trails, ponds, paths and even a train station replica.
• Coffman Park, in Dublin, has recently undergone a transformation.  The playground and shelter houses are all new.  There is a stream for natural exploring, as well as plenty of open green space for running around.
• Millstone Creek Park in Westerville is newly opened and offers more than just the swings and slides you have come to expect from parks.  This has a huge play structure, plus a nature play area, streams and boardwalk.

Do you have a favorite out of the ordinary park to add to the list?
