When you're at your next cocktail party, break out this little gem to astound and amaze your peers:
Q: When, where, and in what form was the first even public playground in America?
A: "The first public playground in the United States was located in Boston where, in 1885, the Massachusetts Emergency and Hygiene Association procured a heap of sand for the yard of the Parmenter Street Chapel to create opportunities for children’s play."
