This delightful little playground is home to several large concrete turtle sculptures.
If you're ever in St. Louis, be sure to stop by.
I guarantee kids (and parents) will burn off a lot of energy
scrambling around on the turtle's backs.

These pictures were taken several years ago, and bring back wonderful memories.

They are super sculptures and kids. Photos are great for memories.
ReplyDeleteThanks for saying that. I think my kids are super, too! :-) We had a really fun time here.
DeleteLooks like a fun park with great memories.
ReplyDeleteIt was a lot of fun, Lynne. I bet you have some favorite parks that you visited with your children, too.
DeleteLooks as if your children enjoyed those turtle sculptures. They really are very nice sculptures. Pictures and memories just go together, don't thye?
ReplyDeleteI always feel so sad for people who lose all their photos in a fire or tornado. We had a great time at this little park. Simple things are sometimes the most fun of all.
DeleteHi Gayle! I haven't been there, but I'm going to look it up next time I'm there! Thanks for sharing your sweet pictures! Twyla
ReplyDeleteTwyla, it's by the zoo, on the south edge of Forest Park.
DeleteHad never heard of this park-- how neat!
ReplyDeleteIf you're ever in St. Louis (Forest Park), you should stop by. It was a lot of fun, even for me, and I am a grown up. Ha ha... Well maybe... Some days I probably act like i'm still 3. :-)
DeleteWhat a neat place!
ReplyDeleteLisa, you have to take the boys back to St. Louis, for the turtles and the arch!
DeleteLooks like a lot of fun!!!
ReplyDeleteIt really is a fun play space for children!
DeleteSounds like a fun place! Thanks for sharing!! xo Heather
ReplyDeleteI would love to take my grandchildren there. It looks a delightful place.
ReplyDeleteIt really is a nice spot to run and play with children or grandchildren for an hour or two. And with the zoo right across the street, it's even more perfect.
DeleteI've never been there. It looks like a fun place!
ReplyDeleteNext time you head that direction, you'll have to stop and see. I had a pet turtle when I was a girl, so I thought this was a super duper playground!
