Back to school- time for a new Playground

How to raise wise children? Send them to the playground...

The time spent by children in schools increases from one year to another, even though studying itself is not quite enough. Perhaps the breaks are not the most important school subjects, but school playground plays important role in child development, providing various forms of activity and corresponding amount of movement during the day spent at a desk. In addition to its obvious motor function, it is also a place for socialization. By having fun on the playground together with others, children can strengthen relationships with their peers and adopt a healthy way of spending free time.


Every device on the playground can have a positive impact on development, especially if learning to read and write is still ahead of a child. Many necessary for the increase of self-reliance activities, such as small and large motor skills exercises, could be practiced when kids are playing outdoors.

Seesaws

Sandboxes

The playgrounds located in schools should not only assure, that kids have fun during their free time, but also provide a place for conducting sports activities. All kinds of bridges, poles, ladders, balances and climbing walls are great for organization of games involving physical movement, such as overcoming obstacles, climbing and skipping.

We also cannot forget of the safe surfaces under facilities, proper distribution of equipment located at a school yard, and the proper fence, protecting not only children, but also school utensils.
