We’ve all got some great memories of playing on the playground – even if some of them weren’t always the safest! Who doesn’t remember swinging as high as we possibly could until we fell off, or sliding down a hot metal slide on a 90-degree day and coming off feeling like our legs were on fire? Today’s playgrounds are a lot different, though – and in many ways that’s for the best. Not only are they a lot safer, but they’re a lot more inclusive, making it possible for kids with disabilities to join in the fun. that’s definitely the case for Watsessing Park Playground in Bloomfield, maybe the best inclusive playground in NJ. One look at this technicolor wonderland makes clear why this park is so special, but every inch of the place is covered in unique features that make it a truly one-of-a-kind getaway for kids – all kids!
