Last summer (2024), LittleGuide Detroit featured '10 Themed Playgrounds in the Metro Detroit Area,' and our Playful Dragon Pocket Park made the list: "Orion Township’s pocket park along the Baldwin corridor is called the Playful Dragon because the giant green dragon has a long red tongue that kids can slide down and wings that are perfect for climbing all over. In addition to the dragon, you can also walk the short storybook path."

This year, the Playful Dragon shares a corridor as Orion Township Parks & Recreation's and Great Lakes Athletic Club--all of which are connected via safety paths and roundabouts--Baldwin walking/biking adventure soon, anyone?

Helping Your Child Express Their Emotions

When children struggle emotionally, they may not have the words to explain what they’re feeling. Creating a safe space for open conversation starts with validating their emotions—saying, "I see you're upset" can help them feel understood.

Encourage expression through words, drawings, or play, as different children communicate in different ways. Asking gentle, open-ended questions like "What made today hard?" instead of "What's wrong?" can invite them to share without pressure.

Modeling emotional expression yourself teaches them that feelings are normal and manageable. With patience and support, your child will gain the confidence to express their emotions in healthy ways.
