Playborhood
Playborhood.com is an online community
devoted to helping parents who want their kids to play outside in
their neighborhoods. Playborhood Local sites like Playborhood Palo
Alto / Menlo Park support local parents
with practical local information and recommendations.
I had previously joined pamp, but found their e-mails and lack of focus too much to handle. It felt more like a micro-craigslist than a parents resource, so I didn’t renew our subscription.
EDIT: Thanks, Chunk for the comment! I should have said that I think Playborhood looks really awesome, and I totally agree that kids need more unstructured play time, and the ability to adventure and explore their local neighborhood, and be able to expand their “safe space” outside of the home, car & school. I’ll look forward to Playborhood sections for Mountain View, which would be really great!

Playborhood has no affiliation with the PAMP Parents Club - we simply used the first letters of each word of the cities for our first local site. I hope you checkout Playborhood and the local site and find them useful.
