Children scrambled over boulders, crawled into a kid-sized tunnel in a hollow tree, and perched atop repurposed logs yesterday following a ribbon cutting at the city’s Nature Exploration Area at Heron’s Head Park!
I love this example of collaboration between @eatlearnplay@kaboom@dj_agana and the Franklin Elementary School in Oakland. A beautiful mural as the backdrop for a wonderful kid-designed playground. https://t.co/Xl8ikqhowi. @DoinGudHQ

"Our kids navigate the world in a variety of public places, which are typically designed for adults. To prioritize kids, we launched #PlayEverywhere to help reimagine how public spaces can better address kids' needs."

“We want to give kids the best opportunity to be successful. Part of that is […] having somewhere to go that’s safe to play and explore their creativity. It’s also knowing that people are thinking about them.”
