Playgrounds

While I'm pretty happy with the selection of playgrounds within walking distance from my home, sometimes I like to give myself a change of scenery and drive to try a new park out. We'll definitely be checking out some of the places listed in today's SF Gate article on "The Bay Area's Best Outdoor Playgrounds." Readers of the SF Gate blog "The Poop" sent in their votes and six playgrounds from San Francisco to Moraga up to Santa Rosa were winners. While some of them sound like they would be headache inducing to keep my 2 year old twins safe and always within eye shot, they all look like they would make any kid very, very happy.

For a more multiples-friendly take on East Bay playgrounds, members can check out the parks list on the Resources page of the Twins by the Bay website. And some of those reviews even mention if you can get a coffee near by!
