Playgrounds and parks are so much fun for kids and parents. But when choosing which playground to take your child to, make sure you go over this safety checklist first.
- Under-surfaces should be absorbent and made of material like wood chips or sand, not grass or cement.
- Playground equipment should be no higher than 5 to 6 feet off the ground.
- Be especially careful with backyard playsets, and make sure they don’t have any strangulation hazards.
Play safe – and have fun!
