Magical Bridge School Playgrounds
Every student deserves to play
Typical school playgrounds leave students out
Chaotic structures, tall nets and towers look fun, but high platforms, narrow pathways, stairs, and ladders shut out many students. Even "inclusive" designs often skip swings, spinners, and quiet spaces, so they serve only a fraction of the school.
