Something happening as in what exactly?
I ask because lots of things *might* happen, most won't.
Can you pinpoint what exactly beyond "something might happen" has you worried?

All the kids are sighted.  I guess it's my fear of something
happening that holds me back.

Are your children sighted?  If you go and get a general idea of
the park
layout when you don't have all of them with you, that might help.
The older
ones will be handy to keep track of the baby, especially if they
know to
come when you call them.  If you take the toddler by him- or
herself, you
could follow along closely or put bells on the shoes, or a box of
Tic-Tacs
in a pocket so you can track that way.

 I have a almost 5 year old and a 8 year old, and a 16 month old.
One of
 the things that has really bugged me is going out with the kids.
I'd
 never had the guts to take them to the park.  I'd wanted too,
but am not
 sure how I would keep a track on them all, esspecially when I
don't know
 the lay out etc.  So, do any of you do this? If so, how?
 Thanks,
 Steph
