Today we went to Nicollet Commons Park in Burnsville. I've been hearing a lot of good things about it so we decided to check it out. The park is in "the heart of the city" and is designed beautifully for local business people to eat their lunches there and for younger kids to play in the shin deep water areas.
When we first got there Caden was a little hesitant to get in. Eventually with me walking around telling him how fun it was and other kids playing on these rock islands in the middle of the first pool, it looked like a good idea to him.
The best part of the park was of course how many (dangerous!) rocks there were to climb on the edges of the pools, streams, and waterfalls. He had a blast going up the tallest ones he could find!
His favorite section of the park had animals shooting streams of water out of their mouths.
After awhile Caden got serious about playing and decided he needed to take his shirt off. Of course he also wanted to take his suit and diaper off!
Caden really loved it there and we'll definitely be going back - with a picnic lunch next time! We were there for an hour and a half and I still had to wrestle him to the car kicking and screaming when it was time to go.
