Playa Vista Park

"Hound dog"

New shoes on with orthotics to help his balance and improve his arches

I so love our times at the Playa Vista Park, a Shane's Inspiration with a spongy floor, ramps, a wobbly bridge, endless slides and swings including swings designed for the disabled but which are equally inviting for Mama's and her two boys. It's just a few minutes drive from home, our local park.

It's a place where I've watched Callum grow from being a baby to a walking, talking, signing toddler and a place where I've watched Reuben metamorphasise into a running child, without a care in the World. The best plan is to keep them dressed in the same colours so they're easier to spot as they're much too independent of each other in the playground to be doing the same activity at the same time. No! they'd rather have their Mama run all over the place, eyes darting from corner to corner, under every bridge, through every tunnel, nook and cranny, til perhaps I find them settled under the bridge, chatting or signing away to new friends.
