Memorial Park in Round Rock
We went to Memorial Park the other day. I had never been there before. It was really peaceful and quiet. There is a river or stream that goes through it that is really well shaded. The ducks seemed a little full because they weren't racing after our bread--but the kids still liked to try and get the ducks to catch the bread in their mouths.
They have a pretty nice play area for the kids. My older daughter (5) loved climbing the "rocks". My 22 month old didn't really have too much to do there. There were two baby swings and also a smaller play area. The smaller play area wasn't very well shaded and she kept saying the slides were too hot. But, I know that's the price you pay for living in Texas and going to a park anytime after 10 am!
The one really big downside was that the bathrooms were across the street next to the baseball field. So, when my 5 year old had to go to the bathroom, we had to put the little one in her stroller and walk a ways to get there. Luckily she's able to "hold it" til she gets to the restroom! Potty trainers should be aware of that! :-)
I heard from another mom that the park gets really crowded on the weekends. We went on a Tuesday late afternoon and there were only a few other parents with kids there. Don't forget your bread for the ducks! Oh and there are picnic tables if you want to take a picnic.
