Growing up, you probably loved playing in a playground, and you might want the same for your children. It is great for them to play outdoors, both for their physical stamina, as well as, for their respiratory system.
So if you have a playground on your property, do you know for sure that it is a safe place for them to be? You might not realize this, but there are a few items to keep an eye on to make sure that your children aren’t at risk when playing in the playground.
One major risk is that they could get their fingers pinched in between moving objects, such as a seesaw. You should make sure that any places where fingers could get caught are covered. Keep an eye out for rust and other conditions that could turn equipment unsafe. Having your playground covered with a material that is soft will also lessen the risk of injury if a child were to fall from a piece of equipment.
