Are more communities investing in outdoor fitness equipment? Absolutely! Outdoor fitness parks have been around for years, but their popularity has increased significantly in recent years due to the rising rates of obesity and the COVID-19 pandemic.
When designing a preschool playground, it’s important that it’s just as safe as it is fun. Preschool-age children are still developing their gross motor skills, and many are still unsteady on their feet. Therefore, you’ll have to think about how 3- and 4-year-olds can get much-needed exercise and use their imaginations without getting hurt.
Inclusive playgrounds are an invitation for ALL children to play TOGETHER. Playgrounds have come a long way over the years, and it’s now easier than ever to design a play space that has something for everyone.
The best way to attract tenants to your neighborhood is by offering a high quality rental in a great location, and at the best price. But it’s not just the layout of the property that renters are concerned with - they also prefer to live in areas that have plenty of amenities and close access to parks, sports complexes, schools and shopping centers.
Winter is not exactly gentle on outdoor playground equipment, but there are ways to ease this burden and keep your equipment in good shape. Not only will this prevent unnecessary injuries, but also it will save money in the long run.
Spending time outdoors is important for kids, especially when they’re cooped up inside of a classroom most of the day. Fortunately, most schools give kids a 20-30 minute recess break where they can run around and burn off some of extra energy, test their physical skills, engage in imaginative play and socialize with friends. Having the right playground equipment can make this outdoor time even more fun, which is why it’s important to choose wisely.
A playground is an ideal place for children to run, play and interact with their peers. However, you also want to make sure that you properly maintain your playground and keep it safe.
The sound of children running and playing is music to many, especially when living in a young and active community. Neighborhood playgrounds provide a safe place where kids can exercise and burn off energy, while parents and guardians can relax. Adding a simple HOA playground contributes to an association’s property values and sense of community.
