French parks had a variety of facilities for both adults and children to enjoy. Many had pleasant gardens and benches for adullts to sit and enjoy the gardens and chat. Well attended parks might have a photographer. Some of the most popular facilities for the children were Punch and Judy theaters and carrousels (merry-go rounds). There were also places to play marbels, roll hoops, and ride skates as well as bounce balls. Sports were not played here, but there were lots of places for younger children to play. There commonly was someone selling ice creams or other treats. The facilities of couse varied from park to park. Hopefully some of our French readers will tell us about their favorite parks and the facilities they enjoyed there.
