There's a lot of history at Aesop Park . If you have time to read what they have posted on the entrance. It's a small park with a jungle gym for the kids. They also have many benches to sit and rest. And who doesn't love a giant bull statue.
This is an older playground and it is not maintained much however I enjoy coming here because it's a good size and there are lots of older trees creating shade for a cooler play area. It's also not over crowed like Bloomingdale park but there are kids playing too. It's a more intimate experience for little ones.
It's a sweet hideaway park, tranquil, shady. My one complaint is, it should be kept up a bit better. The sprinkler area had quite an amount of leaves all over and dangerous when wet. An easy slip, and your done. Be careful.
Adorable little park with very cool statues from children's story books. It is a great place to take pictures but has limited play equipment. There is a school yard near by that is fairly large to ride bikes, play ball, and run freely that adds to the allure of the park. A good place to spend time with your little ones.
This is a beautiful hidden gem of a playground/park. HOWEVER, while weather was still warm in October we were inundated with mosquitoes, as it is basically in a forest, and had to leave. Definitely recommend it when mosquitoes not in season.
