In honor of World Kindness Day - How Play Spaces Foster Kindness

Did you know that a playground’s layout influences how children play, create, imagine and socialize? Most playgrounds are consciously designed to be safe, enriching learning environments.

Ask any kid what their favorite subject is and most will declare, “Recess!” Today’s schools don’t just teach the ABCs and 123s. They also prepare students for a successful adult life.

Sun exposure is a main consideration for any public or commercial park. Whether you’re building a new park or looking to update your current play area, you’ll want to think about how comfortable this space is for children and their families.

Playgrounds are incredibly important to the childhood experience. Walk or drive past any outdoor playground and you’re bound to see the biggest smiles and hear the loudest laughter. Outdoor play areas are where the magic happens for kids, whether it’s mastering the monkey bars or climbing to the top of a half-moon climber.
