The best playgrounds give everyone a chance to learn and have fun in the great outdoors. However, children with special needs often have a hard time navigating parks and playgrounds. By making a few changes to your existing playground, you can create an inclusive environment that supports children of all ages and abilities.
Choosing the right benches, shade structures, picnic tables and trash bins is just as important as selecting the best playground equipment. Park amenities and furnishings offer comfortable areas for parents and caregivers to sit while they watch their children play.
There are plenty of great reasons to choose a custom playground design, even though they tend to be more of an investment. As with other products, selecting a custom design gives you the freedom to pick and choose exactly what you want.
When a playground is first built, everything is new and tip top condition. But this doesn’t last for long when kids and families start playing at the park daily. This is why you want to choose safety surfacing that offers long term durability.
When the winter comes, most people spend more time indoors because of the icy sidewalks, cold temperatures and shortened days. If you are responsible for commercial playground equipment you'll want to start preparing your park for the winter during the fall season.
Dog parks are surging in popularity. Since 2007, these pet-friendly parks have grown by 89 percent. Nearly every major city in the U.S. now has at least one dog park.
Regular cleaning is an important factor in keeping public playground equipment safe and sanitary. While routine sanitization has always been a priority, it’s even more so now with COVID-19.
When people think of parks and playgrounds, they generally consider the benefits for their own community.
