1 / 3Whalen Playground
đ The Bronx, NY
A clean, intimate playground ideal for toddlers and young children, with a welcoming community atmosphere that's especially supportive of children with special needs.
It's comfortable and clean and and the playground is perfect for small kids to play on and it also has many clean benches for people to sit down and relax... the only thing is, sometimes people play music while they're in the siting area next to the playground so keep that in mind if you wanna go there and sit and relax with your kids or by yourself... overall: it's a great but small playground that small kids will love and it's also a good place to sit down and relax at.
đ Family Action Verdict
This is an excellent choice for families with toddlers and young children who want a safe, intimate playground experience. The small size makes it ideal for parents of children with special needs, and the community is welcoming and watchful. However, families seeking extensive equipment or swings should look elsewhere.

âI have a child with autism and he loves it because it's small and he has made many friends. The people already know him and are aware. As a result, the friendly neighbors make sure the gates are closed to make sure children do not run out of the park.â

âI grew up in this area so it was nice to see that they fixed the playground so nicely. It was very quiet and clean. The only con no swings.â

âSmall spot to get sit and get some sun or shade. The playground is great for kids. The other half is where the adults usually hang out.â
