The intent of the new playground is that it will use 'universal’ design features. That is, children with disabilities and for children without disabilities. With that being said, are there any other features you would like to see at the playground?

    Nina Park because it's a fenced and shaded playground with lots of toys the community has left there to share. We also like Potomac Yard park because it has really big play structures and lots of fun and unusual play things. Clemyjontri also has a lot of play options, which makes it really fun. But the last two playgrounds are not shaded, which is essential with young kids.

    Something that fosters creativity. Perhaps with features that the children can manipulate, so they don't always play the same way. Water play would be great!

  • What are your hopes, expectations and/or ideas for the playground?

    I could only select one play element. The others are: swings, slides, raised platforms, balance beams, bridges, and sand.
