Meyer Park

There's a little kid playground.
 The little kids have their own swings.
 The big kid playground!

Big kid swings!
 Look, another playground, with a twisty slide!
 Lots of grassy space with picnic tables & benches everywhere.
A little covered area for a shady picnic. 
I see lots of turtles!! 
 A bird coop?  That's crazy!
 We followed a trail & found this nice spot.

Meyer Park in Spring (7700 Cypresswood Dr) is 180 acres of soccer fields, baseball fields, trails, playgrounds, a basketball court, duck pond, & fishing lake.  There are covered picnic areas, a gazebo, & a picnic pavilion (that can be reserved here).  There are restroom facilities & water fountains available.  When it rains a lot, both swing areas & some of the playground area floods.  The park is split in half by Cypresswood Dr, with the playgrounds & ponds on the same side.

Cy-Champ Park

 There's a park in there??  (We're still not used to all the trees!)
Even a twisty slide!
This is pretty fun for climbing. 
 Bouncy horses!
 Do you think I'm too big for this swing??
 I'd really like to have a picnic here.
 Nature walks are like adventures.

Cy-Champ Park (Cutten Rd & Cypresswood Dr) is home to the Falllen Warrior Memorial, a nice trail, & a playground nestled in the woods.  There is a water fountain, but no restroom.
