Parents know some playgrounds well: Red Caboose in Bellevue, Centennial Park, the sneaky-good play area at the zoo. But unless you frequent the Northwest YMCA, you probably don’t know about BlueCross Healthy Place. The fully accessible playground is open to the public and features a challenge course, splash pad, walking path and fitness equipment. It’s also got basketball and pickleball courts, so you can play right alongside your kids.
