Texas has no shortage of playgrounds, however, there isn’t a single one quite like this. Jerry Matheson Park in Tomball features a plethora of different play structures all made from tires. Slides, swings, and even picnic tables are held together by the giant rubber wheels, completely changing the way kids (and kids at heart) have fun.

Spanning a whopping 10 acres, Jerry Matheson Park offers ample opportunity for kids of all ages to run amok. Plenty of shade surrounding the play area means even a full day of fun in the sun is possible without overheating.
