Going to the park

[Dreamalittledream]

I am a block down from a large green space with a large park. It's often one of the first thing a perspective new daycare family remarks at. And I tell them straight away that we almost never go to the park. I cannot possibly have my eyes on all at the same time...even when the park is completely vacant. I find it so incredibly stressful! I just don't take that chance. Heck, even with my own older 2 children I've never been that parent sitting on the bench chatting away with other parents. We have a huge fenced in back yard and are at the end of a tiny dead end...as well we take lots of adventures on the nature trails nearby...lots of alternatives.
