Inclusion Matters: Play for All Ages and Abilities
Inclusive playgrounds are thoughtfully designed environments where children of all abilities can play, learn, and grow together. They go beyond accessibility by encouraging meaningful interaction, social inclusion, and shared play experiences that nurture empathy, confidence, and understanding. Every feature is intentionally designed to invite participation, ensuring that no child feels left out or limited by physical or developmental differences.
These spaces include accessible pathways, sensory-rich activities, and a variety of play opportunities that support physical, social, and cognitive development. By promoting inclusion and connection, inclusive playgrounds foster a sense of belonging for every child and family. Through thoughtful design and community collaboration, they become welcoming destinations where everyone can play, explore, and thrive together.
Inclusive Playground Design
Inclusive playground design ensures every child can play, connect, and thrive through thoughtfully planned environments that welcome all abilities. Using PlayCore’s 7 Principles of Inclusive Design, Cunningham Recreation puts evidence-based research into practice.
- Inclusive playground designs using proven best practices
- Freestanding inclusive play components such as adaptive swings, sensory panels, and ground-level features
- Accessible ramps, surfacing, and play areas
- Sensory-rich play activities that engage sight, sound, and touch
- Social play areas that encourage interaction and teamwork
- Cozy or quiet spaces where children can take a break and reset
