Nearby city parks can also provide an opportunity to get closer to nature. Parks provide open space for locals to get fresh air and for children to run around and work out their wiggles. Trees help clean the air and provide habitat for birds and squirrels. They offer physical relief and visual respite, too. Green spaces break up the monotony of structures and roads, and offer people a chance to take a breather. We are lucky that our home is near to the park. I can bring my daughter in the park if the weather is good. She likes to run and run around, and she likes to play with the other kids too. I let her sit on the grass, crawl everywhere, and lay down on the grass. The bad thing is, when it is time to go home, she screamed and doesn't like to go home, so as a mother, I have to do a trick again. Ha! :)
