Natural locally sourced safe environment
From "Springwood Play Area"
Go to the project

Natural wooden play area with interesting features that can be played with in different imaginative ways. Flooring safer with wood chip or similar so falling is more cushioned. Utilise things like local recovered wood, rope and tyres rather than shipped factory designs from half way round the world. Add in nooks as well as swinging things, balancing things, climbing things to vary play. Uneven landscaping can add dimension without too much cost like mounds and ridges. Demarcation with numbers or symbols can be used to create games like in capture the castle.

Thanks Claire.
The natural theme is definitely one that keeps popping up. We will certainly be looking to make the surface safer and use materials like those that you have suggested.
