Briar Meadow Park – Visiting Houston Parks, One Week at a Time

by Jill Jarvis Leave a Comment

Briar Meadow Playground Houston
Address:  7703 Richmond Ave, Houston, TX 77063

We drove down Richmond from the 610 loop and passed businesses, rushed drivers and chaos… and as we came on Briar Meadow Park, I swear rays of sun were shining on this quiet park.

We flipped around the median, parked in the free lot and were off to join the families at the park.

Briar Meadow Park Small Playground
Briar Meadow Park has a playground for little kids, a playground for big kids, swings, tennis courts, picnic tables, a pavilion and a .28 mile trail.

All the equipment looks new and there are some great features. The little kid playground has a cool ABC rock wall and some dual-rider-spring-riders

Briar Meadow Park ABC Climber
The bigger playground has bridges, a climbing wall, a cool climbing mound that looks like an iceberg and more!

Briar Meadow Park Climber
When we visited there were a few families on the playground, a toddler bike rider practicing on the concrete and couples walking around the trail. The dirt path loops around the tennis court away from Richmond Avenue.

Briar Meadow Park Mountain Climber
The park is in full sun, so bring your hats and sunscreen. Also, I did not notice any restrooms, so plan ahead.

This park is really a good one, so next time you are feeling frantic in the Galleria… keep driving a little further to Briar Meadow Park!

On this website you will find a full list of Houston weekly events, things to do around the city, travel ideas and resources for parents.

I know just what it’s like to be overwhelmed by work, life and family. I spent a lot of years traveling for work, missing big milestones for my kids and feeling bad about everything.

I started this website to make a list of all the events happening around Houston and then pick one to enjoy with my kids. And instead of thinking of all the things I was missing, I started to enjoy the things we were doing together.

If you are a parent that is feeling overwhelmed by all the things you could be doing in Houston… please just use our weekly lists and daily posts as suggestions. Pick one thing to do with your family and intentionally ignore the rest!
