Kemp Mill Urban Park (Silver Spring)



The huge slide and climbing web is clearly the centerpiece of the newly-renovated Kemp Mill Urban Park, and indeed, it is usually swarming with kids. But the park also has a number of fun, unusual climbing structures, as well as an enclosed basketball/soccer court and swings.

The playground is clearly designed for older kids, but there is a scattering of structures for toddlers and younger children, including some play houses that are nicely shaded by trees, a smaller slide, and some other climbing equipment. Unfortunately, these are widely separated, so there's no `little kid area.' In general, I would go to this playground for older kids; but if you have younger ones in tow, they will definitely not be bored.

As a bonus, this playground is part of an outdoor shopping center that also has a nice cafe, a pizza shop, a supermarket, and a fabulous candy store.
