Playground: Indian Boundary Park

We visited a wonderful neighborhood park called Indian Boundary Park!

This park is great for many ages as it has so much to offer - a large, wooden playground, a grassy area with trails, a bird sanctuary, and nature play center. All packed into a city block (even a Fieldhouse and event space is available - some outdoors in their garden with twinkle lights!)

The wooden playground is perfect for kids to exercise their imagination - there are so many towers and tunnels, mixed with money bars, slides, and tire swings. We had a really hard time getting the boys to leave (8 and 6 years old)!

Noteworthy:

• In addition to the wooden "castle" structures, there is a nature play center right next to the playground that has little nooks and crannies for kids: little stone houses, tree stumps to hop through, and tree trunks to balance on.
• The bird sanctuary is a serene little pond covered in wild flowers, where you can see turtles, butterflies, and birds (we even saw baby Canadian Geese!).
• Restaurants - nearby there is a variety of places to eat and a cute little ice cream shop called Lickety Split.
• Being so close to Little India, we wanted to introduce the kids to Indian food. We ended up at Tiffin, which the kids loved and were raving about the entire time (we ordered Lamb Seehk Kebob, Chicken Tikka, and Mixed Grill Platter). It was way too much food but the boys are over the moon to know they can eat more of it tomorrow!

Age Recommendations:
Something here for everyone!  Grab some friends and head out!  It's worth the trip if you are not close by.

Location/Transportation:
2500 W. Lunt, Chicago, IL / Rogers Park
Parking is tight in the area, so you may need to walk a bit to get to the park.
Not easily accessible by train, but several bus lines service the area.

Kid's Jury: 5 stars
Technically, they tried to give it 10 stars, but that's not how it works.
And then with the Indian Restaurant, they were probably at 100 stars.
