This is a really nice park. The ground is nice and soft and its kept relatively clean. Often overrun by kids, well dressed moms and nannies, but worth a visit.

Clean and well maintained. Hard to supervise toddler with only one adult because of the gaps in the climbing structure (there by design, but leave too many options to cover by one adult). Busy, but kids seemed well supervised. Parking can be tough, but an easy walk if you live in Old City.

Tucked away on a quiet, serene street, Three Bears is a real find (if you can find it). But each time I go, it seems like it's all nannies with their charges -- very few moms. And when I do meet other parents, it's not as warm and friendly as playgrounds in other 'hoods (notably Seger, which is where moms seem to gather).

Great neighborhood spot...perfect especially for the smaller kids -- lots of equipment for their needs.
