The kids were out of school yesterday due to Presiden’ts Day & many mommies and daddies were wondering what to do with them?  The park of course!  And there are many great parks here in the desert.  We visited Freedom Park in Palm Desert.  It’s a “new” park, so one of the best things about it is that everything is so clean!  It has quite a variety of entertaining equipment for the wee little ones and the older ones too.  Also some nice tables and benches, which are shaded (very important here in the desert), for us parents to take a quick 30 second rest in between playing with our little ones.  The park is a great way to let your little ones burn off some of that energy!  They are guaranteed to go home tired and ready for a nap….without argument!  We made an adventure out of our park day and took a picnic lunch.  My daughter was so excited as she helped make turkey/avocado wraps.  (So excited that she didnt’ even realize when I snuck the spinach leaves in her wrap!)  It was a great way to get outdoors and enjoy our nice weather…..before we know it, it will be too hot to even step outside!
