Dear Liza,
I have found the best place to play by Portland! It is called Hidden Creek Park and it’s just west of town, in Hillsboro. Auntie Katie and the Cousins took me there last week.
Hidden Creek Park is huge, new, and beautifully designed.
There are several different play areas with creative, challenging, accessible play equipment, including a metal and wooden structure called “Oro, the Forest Giant”, a hollow ape with slides and climbing bits all over it.
There were dozens of kids all over the inside and outside, and there was room for more. It was amazing! Kids of ages about 6 to teenagers like Cousin Jasper found lots to do.
In a different section of the park is a water play area with sand and rocks so kids can make little dams and canals.
Across a broad plaza with bathrooms and such is a Fitness area, with lots of climb-y things and par course exercises to do. Kida and grandkids all had a fine time!
I can’t wait to share it with you on your next visit.
Love,
Grandma Judy
Dear Liza
