A Child’s Life Learning Center has undergone a fundraising campaign to renovate our outdoor play area.

Our current outdoor learning space features gravel, grass and cement play areas, chain link fencing, and outdoor toys, but no playground equipment. We do our best to make the environment a fun and engaging outdoor space for our children and currently have to rely heavily on outdoor toys, games and imaginary play.

The loose gravel is in need of replacement for a number of reasons. While it has better fall protection than other hard materials, rocks can be scattered, cause harm, and wear and tear on other playground equipment/toys is quicker than other materials would be. Loose gravel also hinders us from being an ADA accessible playground. We will replace the gravel with safety turf that will not only alleviate these issues but allow for improved fall radius for children.

A chain link fence allows protection but little privacy for our children. A greater level of safety and privacy is an important part of our role in keeping children safe and comfortable while in our care and will be accomplished through black privacy slatting.

Playground equipment is an important benefit to outdoor play for children. Each child in our care has outdoor access twice a day and needs continual engagement for this developmentally important time. The installation of permanent equipment and activities will enhance outdoor play and development for our center immensely.

Children see a vast variety of physical benefits through playground play including:

Improved flexibility and balance
Development of overall motor skills, dexterity and hand-eye coordination
Opportunities to learn how to control their movement
Improved instincts
Promotion of healthy heart and lung function
Stronger muscles
Improved immune function
Lowered risk of obesity and diabetes

All Cash and gifts in kinds of goods and services help us reach our goal - thank you for your help in reaching our goal!
