Public Spaces: Playgrounds
Playgrounds are vital for children’s development, offering spaces for physical activity, creativity, and social interaction. Designing inclusive play areas ensures that all children, including those with disabilities, can engage in play and exploration. By incorporating accessible surfaces, diverse play equipment, sensory elements, and quiet spaces, these areas promote equal opportunities for fun and growth, while also fostering a sense of community and belonging.
