Houston Parks for Kids of All Abilities

Houston Parks for Kids of All Abilities!

Houston has hundreds of parks... and if you include the surrounding areas, there are hundreds more. That said, not all parks are great for kids of all abilities.

Around Houston, playgrounds for kids of all abilities are usually called "boundless" or "playgrounds without limits" and have texture and sensory features, ramps, bars that go all the way to the base of the structure and are accessible for everyone.

Below are the parks we know about… but if you know of more near Houston, let us know!
