The Chicken And Farm Themed Playground In Colorado That’s Oh-So Special

Colorado is a magical place to grow up (and I should know, as I am a rarity who was actually born and raised in the Centennial State), thanks to our Disneyland of Mexican restaurants, ample outdoor activities, Santa's Workshop, and parks galore! When it comes to parks, there are many different ones to choose from, our favorite, of which, is this egg-cellent chicken and farm-themed playground in Colorado that's oh-so-special:

Welcome to the unforgettable Silver Creek Park!

Located in Lafayette, Silver Creek is about as memorable as it gets, beginning with the chicken statues and eggs strewn about the playground.

To make this already unique theme even more one-of-a-kind, there is a fun scavenger hunt to accompany the chicken motif, which you can participate in by following the signs (or prints!) around the park.

What's a farm without a tractor? Silver Creek has that, too, plus barn-like climbing structures and other fun touches.

Why a chicken-themed playground? Silver Creek Park was designed in honor of the land's previous owners, who ran “one of the region’s largest poultry farms from 1920 to 1978.”

While younger kids will almost always love a park, Silver Creek was also designed with older kids in mind, as it boasts climbing walls, nets, and a long zipline.

When the weather is warm, the "chicken park" is one of the best places to cool off, thanks to its interactive water feature with a pump and spout.

Please note: The water feature is only available in the summer.

The Silver Creek Park is open year-round from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.
