Playgrounds
“Free Play” which children experience through playing on playgrounds is a critical factor their growth and development. Children develop cognitive reasoning skills as they use the playground while climbing, balancing and sliding. They develop social skills and learn to resolve conflicts through interactions with other children.
Keeping children active in this time of concern over childhood obesity is so important! They will think they are just having fun! Come and play in our parks today!
