Park # 3, Hillsborough Park 03.25.16

We started our day going to Bass Pro Shop to get our pictures with the Easter Bunny.  There was a two hour wait so we ended up going to Hillsborough Park and than going back after once the line died down.

Hillsborough Park is definitely one that is going to be one of our regular parks to visit.  Cooper is really into Jake and the Neverland Pirates right now so when we drove up and he saw the pirate ship he was so ready to be out of the car and start exploring.   It had two playgrounds and a nice covered picnic area.  There was a huge soccer field that we spent 30 minutes running around in.  There were swings, slides, and a lot of fun climbing structures.

Mom's Review:  I liked the pirate ship and Cooper spent a lot of time playing on it.  I didn't like that it was in sand.  It's just messier than I like, but still fun for Cooper so I can't complain. The other part of park was a little challenging for Cooper and he had to climb alot.  There is tons of nets to climb up and open spaces so a little scary for younger kids.  There are a lot of shade trees all around the park but none shade  the play area.  The bathrooms are nice and decently clean for a park.

Coop's Review:  I loved the binoculars on the pirate ship.  I pretended I was the captain and we were going to crash.  I like playing in the sand but my mom doesn't like all the sand in her car.  I liked swinging on the monkey bars.  It made me really tired but I loved it.  I didn't like the baby slide.  It was too small for me and not very fun.
