Here in Minnesota, we’re lucky to have lots of exciting places at which to entertain ourselves. From museums to state parks, there’s plenty to see no matter where your interests lie. But what about playgrounds? These parks don’t usually get a whole lot of attention, but maybe they should. There is one fairy tale park in particular that deserves some attention. One visit, and it’s sure to enchant you. Take a look:
Located in Stillwater, Teddy Bear Park is the cutest playground around. You’ll find it at 207 Nelson Street East.

The bears may give the park its name, but there is a lot more to it than those. The entire area is filled to the brim with unique play structures.
