Fire Truck Park in Southside… a playground for big kids & a fire truck for toddlers!

Address: 3743 Garnet Street, Houston, TX 77005

Fire Truck Park in Southside is one of our very favorite parks!

Not only is there a fire truck play structure for toddlers, but there is unique big structure for the big kids. And it’s completely fenced in with a little rock “boulders”, spinners, tire swing and more!

This park is pretty small in size and easy to watch… but my big kids and little kids all like to go here. They can run between the equipment and stop for a snack at the covered picnic tables. I can follow the toddler and know the bigger kids are close by.

Plus, when we leave we can go to Little Matt’s or play at the other spots around West University!

Look at the pictures!

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!
