Southwest Park, Webster Groves







Location: 1155 S Rock Hill Rd, Webster Groves, MO 63119

Website: http://mo-webstergroves2.civicplus.com/index.aspx?NID=186

Playground Ground Cover: Wood chips

This is a really nice playground. It's large with lots of things to do including a saucer swing, a spider web climber, 2 baby swings, drums, beams, slides, and more. It looks fairly new and is beautifully landscaped. There is one larger play structure and one smaller one.  We really enjoyed this space.








 There is a huge open field behind the playground, filled with amazing trees that look like Live Oaks. They have branches so close to the ground that looks great for climbing.


















The pavilion has a grill and is right next to the restrooms and the parking lot. It's not huge but at least it's covered. 


Nice restrooms that were still open in the winter!


This is the water feature. It's not exactly a spray ground, but there is a hand pump at the top of the hill, and after you pump the water out it flows down this creek bed. There is a little dam and you can lift up the door or let it flow over like a waterfall. There's something similar at Ferris Park. Any water on a hot day is refreshing!

Ivory Crockett Park, Webster Groves




Location: Bounded by Bell and Almentor Aves, Webster Groves, MO 63119

Website: http://www.webstergroves.org/178/Ivory-Crockett-Park

Playground Ground Cover: Wood Chips

The park features 2 fenced-in basketball courts, a tennis court, a ball field, a soccer field, and a playground area. There are some unique things here including a merry-go-round, a car, and a spinning disc thing that my kids liked. There are 2 baby swings, 4 sling swings, rock walls, interesting balls to climb in, tunnels, and various other climbers.

The bathrooms were scary. No doors, really rundown, and I didn't feel safe in there.







More spinning things






This disc they are laying on spins around, they really enjoyed playing on it.
