Nielsen's Grove Park

My friend organized a "park group" for the neighborhood moms.
Each week we go to a different park.
This particular one was amazing.

Nielsens Grove Park

Lots of room to run around,
a big playground area,
a pond with ducks and fish,
fountains to play in,
big flower displays,
etc., etc.

Cannon loved the pond...

Especially being able to watch the fish.

Lincoln preferred the fountain.

Did I mention the fact that it is the size of a small kid pool?

With knee deep water and rubber on the bottom so kids don't slip?

And a plaque that specifically states that this fountain isn't for swimming...
but as you can see it is VERY ignored.

They have a HUGE grass field that runs through the middle of the park.

Which, by the way, it mostly fenced in.
Your kids could run for a while without getting lost.

My boys loved it!
This park seriously has it all.
If you've never been, you've got to go check it out.

Here's how to get there:
- From I15: Get off on University Parkway (UVU exit) and head east
- Turn right onto Sandhill Road (just before Walmart)
- Turn left onto 1840 South
That should take you to the parking lot.

Have fun!
