We like kids to take risks when they play. It teaches them so much. But note, there is a big difference between a hazard and a risk. We believe playgrounds should be hazard free, not risk free. A hazard is something the child can’t see or predict as a result of their own actions or […]
These days we’re bombarded with messages to move more, stand more, exercise more… and most of us love the idea of being healthier and happier. You set a goal, put on your sneakers and grab your water bottle… but you’ve probably spent all day inside and you don’t want to go to a crowded, loud, […]
