The above is sort of a "modified" zipline - the blue handles slide in a channel. The kids playing on it were having a great time.
Some of them played in twos with one kid hanging and being pushed back and forth, there was one group of three kids with the
one kid hanging and two kids at either end pushing him to each other. There was also one talented little girl who would slide down, then
would swing her body forward and back and make herself move back to the starting point.

The yellow "droopy-head trumpets" in the background are all around the edge of the play area and are a sophisticated "can-on-a-strinig"
system where someone can talk at one and be heard and talked to from other.


The tall, thin yellow thing on the left twirls on a pivot in the ground and on the structure.

This is a "themed" park - dinosaurs/palentonlogy. There are images all around the edge of the play area for kids to search for and identify
("hunt fossils depicted throughout the site"). This "science park" coordinates with the nearby school program.

The above is an example of the sign that shows "fossils" that kids can identify at the site.
The red thing in the background is a swiveling piece of play equipment.

The foreground of the above photo are balancing "pods." These photos are carefully taken to keep the kids out of them,
but there were actually a lot of kids here on this cold, wet day and this was very popular for a while . . . until they broke
up and went to other areas of the structure.

In the foreground of the above photo is a twirly thing that was quite popular with single kids as well as pairs.

The above photo shows the tic-tac-doe interactive feature - there are several of these items around the structure.

The above are noise making things that kids can thump on to create different sounds. When I was there, there were three kids who were working on coordinating a "song" — it was actually very clever of them.

This playground equipment was especially popular with the neighborhood because of it's "transparency"
