Fargnoli Park And Splash Pad — Attraction in Providence

I've owned my home in Elmhurst for over 26 yrs. and brought my grand children here for over 20 yrs. This past yr with the pandemic made it very difficult as to deciding camp vs childcare! I was AUNTIE AUNTIE CAMP to my 4 yr old Great nephew! We spent 5-6 days a week there weather permitting from 9:30 am to 3:30pm. He'd play in the morning on the jungle gym, slides, play on the grass for kick ball e.g. soccer and football; merry go round slides climbing ropes/rocks and just run until the free summer lunches were delivered at 12noon. He'd eat and have his favorite chocolate milk! Most days we'd bring a backup of Crystal Lite for waters for hydration! But after 12 noon lunch was finished 12 waterpark time would start! Mon- Saturday he'd continue running through it for hrs.

He could have cracked his skull and have the rescue try to safe the damage to his brain and not live a normal happy life ! 😥 it was traumatizing to see that poor baby go down and his head get pulled away from an adult within literally a 1 inch of...

What a transformation this playground/water park has gone through! So much to do for all ages. A few things that need attention, the bathroom had only one toilet and no lock and was disgusting. The other, was the utter disrespect with littering from both kids and adults. I actually watched a 2 year old eat a few bites of pizza and throw the rest at my feet. Trash was everywhere, even though there were plenty of trash cans. Do...
