Exploring Acton

We left behind a half-dozen parks/playgrounds within walking distance back in Arlington and now we have to drive to most playgrounds, but it has been fun exploring all the options.

The one park we can walk to is right behind the library and while it is a bit run down (money is currently being raised to renovate it), Finley adores playing on the wooden train.

And chasing other kids down the tube slide.  He met a boy named Max and said, "Just like Wild Things!" I'm sure Max hears that a lot...

Dagny enjoyed the scenery, too!

 

Rideout Playground is a short drive away in Concord and Finley made a buddy on our first visit.  They had fun on the structure, in the sandbox, and "playing" soccer.

 Despite not having playgrounds right near our house, our front, side, and backyards provide plenty of fun.  Here's Finley playing with sticks and his new golf club on our lawn.  Spending time with him outside if one of my favorite things because his imagination really takes off and it is quite entertaining.
