Mom and Sun Playing together

Playgrounds In Greenville, SC and in Upstate South Carolina

One of my favorite things to do with my kids on a beautiful sunny day is to take them to the playground. Now, if your kiddos are anything like mine, then you really have to keep a rotation of playground so they don’t get bored. Luckily there are so so many amazing playgrounds in Greenville, SC, and its surrounding cities, that our options are truly endless!

I am going to be honest with you, I am not one of those mamas that will run around and play with their kids at the playground. Since I homeschool, I basically play with them all day! The park is a chance for my kids to go run, be free, and really stretch their own imaginations. I will list a few that we have enjoyed as a family.
