Grass Patch
Description
The Grass Patch is a free public play space on the grounds of Omaha Children’s Museum. In an area of the city not known for green spaces, it’s been a welcomed addition to the neighborhood. The playground is in a fenced-in grassy area between the parking lots.
Like the museum itself, it’s designed for kids about ages 8 and under. The playground equipment is set over a wood chipped spot in the grass. There are a couple slides, some fake logs to climb and practice balancing, and some space to run. It’s all brightly-colored. There are a few benches.

Additional Information
- Parking at the children's museum is free. On the weekends, overflow parking is available at the school across from St. Mary Avenue is free, too. There is also metered parking on the streets.
- It's not super shaded, though there are some coverings to provide some shade.
- It's open from sunrise to sunset.
- There are no public restrooms, though most likely, the museum's front desk staff will let you use the bathrooms in the museum when it comes to emergencies.
- There aren't any restaurants or places for treats within walking distance of the museum. I recommend driving east on St. Mary Avenue (it turns into Howard Street) to find a place to eat in the Old Market. For ice cream, look to Ted & Wally's. For sweets, go to Hollywood Candy.
