- Palmetto Bay park has a lot to offer on a sunny Miami day. Although I did get a little lost trying to find it, I would still go again. The playground area is extremely large and has two playgrounds one for older kids and one for toddler age kids.  I love the fact that the actual playground area is shaded but it seems like there is no shade for the parents on the benches throughout the park.

-Evelyn Greer Park has the best of both worlds, fresh-air and  Wi-Fi Internet access! Bring your laptop and let the kids play at the playground. My 11 year old niece is staying with us for the summer and she loves to play online games, so I took them to Evelyn Greer park and she could use the laptop and my daughter could run around the playground. In 2005 the park was named one of the best parks in South Florida by Parenting Magazine.

-This park has recently had a Miami-Dade library added to it and the building is amazing. With it’s modern lines and colors and the beautiful stone work on the side wall it’s really more than just a library but a piece of modern architecture. The park area has a walking path, playground and basketball courts. I guarantee you won’t miss it because it’s located right on Kendall Drive and 152nd Ave.

- In 2008 Coral Reef Park received the Kids Crown award by South Florida Parenting magazine as the “Best Park for Toddlers” and I believe it. But the park is so much more than just a place for toddlers. With new additions like beach volleyball court, tennis courts, meditation gazebo and garden and concession stands being build right now it is truly a great place for the whole family.

- A beautiful park in a nice location with a gated in playground (great for toddlers who tend to wander!) The only problem is there are no bathrooms. For some reason there is no exact address for the park so the best way to get there is to go down South Dixie Highway and turn at LeJeune going South (into the residential area)

Le Jeune Road and Barbarosa Ave.
Coconut Grove, FL 33146

The park features:

  • Gated-in playgrounds
  • Walking path
  • Beautiful Banyan shade trees
