Playground ground cover: Pea Gravel & Wood Chips

This playground is small but has nice equipment. There aren't any bathrooms which is a shame.  It was a very hot day when we went and there was little to no shade. It is gated however, which was very nice and there were plenty of benches. There are 2 sling swings and 2 baby swings. Very nice quiet neighborhood park.

There is pea gravel under the swings but mulch under the equipment. 

There are 2 diggers that kids can manipulate the mulch with.
