Each year, the team at Cunningham Recreation continues to be impressed with the custom playgrounds that are built across the country. Every time we see a new playground or play space installed in a community, we can’t help but smile.
The best playgrounds are the ones where all children can play and interact together. Every child should have equal access to parks regardless of their age or ability. When you create the perfect playground, you’ll see all kids playing together and joining in the fun - even parents and grandparents will have opportunities to interact with their children and grandchildren!
A strategically built public park has many health benefits. It creates a safe gathering space, promotes community welfare and enhances mental well-being. Scientists at University of Illinois say that adding more green spaces to urban surroundings can help reduce criminal activities by 50% which ensures peace of mind for citizens.
Destination playgrounds are typically larger playgrounds set in an attractive location where people visit often. Whereas neighborhood playgrounds bring in people who live nearby, destination playgrounds draw in large crowds from surrounding areas.
When working with a playground equipment supplier, it’s important to have a list of questions on hand. This way, you can start important conversations early and develop realistic expectations for the course of the project.
Are you looking to add bleachers to your sporting facility? You might be surprised to learn that there is more than one type of bleacher available.
As school communities become more diverse, you may be looking for new ways to engage students in creative and imaginative play. And one of the best places to support this type of play is on the playground.
If you’re looking to keep individuals and families in your community healthy and active, an obstacle course is the perfect way to make this happen. Obstacle courses combine physical activity with fun for the whole family.
Church playgrounds bring families together in creative ways. They support a young congregation and help churches grow their communities. It’s important to thoughtfully plan your church playground, as it will be used by many different individuals and families.
School playgrounds need attention from time to time, just as public playgrounds do. It's important that school playgrounds are kept safe, fun and engaging so that students have a place to decompress in between classes.
