After Work Playground Time for Two Age Groups in Seattle
Plan a family picnic with reservable barbecue shelters as an alternative to heading straight home.
🛝 An Evening Beyond the Commute
After work, John C. Little, Sr. Park makes a persuasive case for taking the family outdoors before heading home. This Seattle neighborhood stop puts play first, with two structures divided between ages two to five and five to twelve. Siblings can have different ideas about the evening without requiring entirely separate destinations.
There are regular swings and a tire swing for anyone whose preferred commute involves going back and forth. A community garden adds another reason to slow down between playground rounds. In summer, the spray area offers a seasonal change of pace for the family outing.
For a gathering that needs more than a quick stop, the barbecue shelters are available for reservation. Keep that option for an evening with a picnic on the calendar. The park is open daily from 6 AM to 10 PM at 6961 37th Ave S, leaving room for an outdoor detour after the laptop closes.
