    Martin Luther King Jr. Park in Tomball - Visiting Houston Area Parks, One Week at a Time

    Martin Luther King Park Tomball BigKidSmallCity
    Address: 403 S. Chestnut, Tomball, TX, 77375

    We've been visiting the Tomball Train Depot for years... but when I looked at the map, I saw a new playground, just on the other side of the train tracks. On our last trip to Tomball, we decided to investigate.

    Martin Luther King Jr. Park is a full fenced park with a playground, basketball court and restroom. And even if you are a professional park explorer (like my kids),  you will be impressed with this wobbly-wave-balance beam. It wiggles and sways as you play!

    The play structure is also a good one, with slides, ladders, monkey bars and a zip line. Overall, it's a great structure...

    But here's the issue... the park is near houses but there is not much car or foot traffic. We only saw a few basketball players and would have really preferred more park traffic.

    I was glad we discovered the wave balance beam... but honestly, I would spend a lot more time across the train tracks at the amazing and popular Train Depot!
