Webster Park

Play Area for Kids

This Seattle neighborhood playground is well-suited for the 5-12 crowd, with slides and climbing structures for active play. Got little ones? No worries - there are swings for bigger kids and baby swings for the tiny adventurers in your family.

The sandbox area is a hit with its community-shared toys. There's a collection of dump trucks and other playthings donated by neighbors - reflecting the local community involvement.

One thing you'll appreciate on those increasingly rare Seattle sunny days is the ample shade from surrounding trees. There's also plenty of open space around the equipment where kids can cruise around on bikes and scooters without too much congestion.

Sports Options

If you're into shooting hoops, you're in luck. The park offers both a full-court and a half-court basketball area, so you can get a serious game going or just practice your jump shot without waiting forever for a turn.

Green Space & Amenities

Beyond the play equipment, there's a modest but inviting lawn area that's just right for spreading out a picnic blanket or simply lounging with a good book. The trees scattered throughout not only add to the park's charm but provide welcome relief from the summer heat.

Note that while there aren't permanent restrooms here, a portable toilet is available when nature calls.

Artistic Touches

Adding a bit of character to this neighborhood haven is an interesting sundial and several art installations. These creative elements give the park a unique personality and offer something a little different from your standard playground experience.

In the Neighborhood

Right next door to Webster Park sits the National Nordic Museum - a happy coincidence that lets you combine some cultural exploration with outdoor play. This makes the park an easy add-on to a museum visit, or vice versa if the kids need to burn off some energy before or after.

While Webster Park isn't huge, it packs in enough variety to keep local families coming back. It's one of those modest neighborhood spaces that manages to offer a little something for everyone.
