Park Explorer : Maple Park

One of the best things to do in Chicago and the surrounding suburbs is exploring the many parks. 


This is the Maple Park in Wilmette, IL. The scoring is as follows.

  • 😍😍😍😍😍 Excellent and one if a kind
  • 😍😍😍😍 Good or a characteristic that can also be said for some other park/s
  • 😍😍😍 Average or the same as other parks 
  • 😍😍 Some improvement needed
  • 😍 Totally needs work

For Maple Park, the following can be said: 

Size – 😍😍😍😍 not so big and not too small either. The slides are on the other side and a ways off from the slides. So, if the bigger kids want to play and hang out, they can do so without crowding the little ones

Colors – 😍😍😍😍😍 love the colors

Activitites – 😍😍😍😍😍 different activities for different interests. You will just love the bridge! 

Crowd – 😍😍😍😍😍 considering that we went there on a Friday afternoon during summer, there were only 2 families playing 

Cleanliness – 😍😍😍😍😍 Super clean 

Comfort – 😍😍😍😍😍 A lot of seats for parents and the cabana can provide a nice shade too!

In your household, you should also watch out for those bills, bank statements, etc. Sensitive documents that only you should have access to and when you need to throw them away, you should do so in pieces. This way, no one else will be able to see them and use them to your detriment.
