Schroeder Park has a huge playground with areas for all ages. It's one of my favorite parks in the area because the playground is so big and there's such a huge variety of things to do. There are lots of slides, baby swings (2), regular swings (7) and an adaptive swing. There is a sandbox, mallet xylophone, several spring rider toys (animals, cars, etc), a digging area in a sandpit, a merry-go-round, fake boulders to climb on, and a rolley slide. Manchester Aquatic Center is also located here.

This long bouncy thing is always a hit with my kids. One will stand at one end and the other one at the other end and one will jump and try to knock each other off.

The yellow thing in the back is the "digger" and that's a big sandpit.

The big play structure has tunnels, tic tac toe boards, maze boards, rock walls, slides, and more.

They have this smaller playground separated from the main playground. There are 2 swings, 2 spring animals, and a play structure down here.
