Great park for big and little kids. There's a giant slide, a smaller playground for toddlers, a lake with little minnows, and a big grass area. To get there, take 80 to Central Avenue. Head east on Central, then north on San Pablo. Turn right (east) on Moeser Lane and go all the way up to Arlington. Turn left on Arlington, and the park will be a few blocks up on your right.

Moraga Commons is a large park with a few play structures, nice picnic tables in the shade, lots of grass, and a couple of water jets that the kids can run through, so bring a bathing suit and towel for your kid (and since the water sprays over cement, it's best if you can bring shoes that your kid can get wet in).
