As some of you may know, our family grew by one this winter with our daughter Evelyn joining us! *Cute Baby Pic Below* With a stroller in tow these days, we’ve started to think more and more about how to navigate MV as a family. After speaking to lots of locals on this matter, we’ve rounded up and linked some of our favorite spots you can comfortably take the littles.

Amusements and Programming

Ocean Park in OB is a great open space to run around and enjoy the ocean view

Nature, Playgrounds + Exploring

4. Stroller-Friendly Nature Options: Sepiessa Pond, Ocean View Farm Preserve and Sheriff's Meadow Sanctuary are our picks!

2. Rainy day? You can also go to the pool at the YMCA or the Mansion House

Noman’s is a casual atmosphere with lawn games and great food options
