Summer means vacation, heat, spending more time with the kids, in short family to bond together and the time to go to places for the various events that will make the vacation more enjoyable and memorable. I am about to share another play haven for kids, educational and promotes physical activity- Miyagawa park. Just beside Miyagawa River Watarai Park this huge playground is a great destination for outdoor fun and safe play for the kids. Aside from the various activities we can do here, various events are also hosted. We had the chance to attend the military presentation being held here, we rode the vehicles, took pictures and even experience how is it to maneuver( visitors are allowed to participate and the officers diligently explain how to do and took time lecturing the participants.) It was interesting and fun specially for the boys.
