General Getty Neighborhood Park (10000 Woodland Ave. Wheaton, MD 20902)
https://montgomeryparks.org/parks-and-trails/general-getty-neighborhood-park/
This playground, hidden in the Forest Estates neighborhood, just off of Georgia Avenue, is worth finding if you can! It was redone within the last year and has a good mix of big kid and little kid entertainment.
 |
There is a spinning rope cage and a big climbing formation for bigger kids. The smaller kids will enjoy a bouncy structure, a tunnel to climb through and a few smaller slides.
 |
One of our favorite things at the park is a tandem swing: put your baby in the baby swing and then a big sibling (or you!) can swing along with him or her on the attached seated swing.
 |
The park also has a covered gazebo, a walking trail around the perimeter of the park, many picnic tables, tennis courts, a big open field, and even a handicap accessible port-a-potty on site. All these amenities make General Getty a good place to have a playdate or afternoon family picnic.
