Spooky Tunnel at Windmill Hill Park
Alexandria City Playgrounds

Windmill Hill Park

April 2, 2012June 4, 2013 - by Meghan - Leave a Comment

If you’ve got a kid who likes to run up the slide, take them to Windmill Hill to have a go at the climbing hill. In fact, climbers, clamberers, and shinniers of all descriptions will love this playground. The climbing hill separates the enclosed playground into two areas- one suitable for toddlers, and one meant for pre-K and up.

Armory Tot Lot

April 22, 2011June 4, 2013 - by Meghan - Leave a Comment

The Armory Tot Lot in the City of Alexandria is a favorite. It’s perfect for the 0-4 age group. Also great for those with multiple children. It’s small, sandbox, bucket swings and climbing structure. Best part is that it’s fenced in, so no losing kiddos or chasing two in different directions.
