WE GOTTA PLAY TOGETHER

Belonging for young children is being in a place where they feel comfortable enough to play without seeking approval – or dodging disapproval – to explore without fear. To redefine their own space and to use the environment around them to create for themselves a sense of order, trust and structure.

Edmonton’s first totally inclusive and accessible indoor playground. Built for all children that advocates a “zero rejection policy”, where no one is left out because of a disability.

The facility is proposed to feature an enclosed merry-go-round, musical elements for children with autism, panels with Braille for the visually-impaired and sign language diagrams for the hearing-impaired.

There will also be a swing and other playequipment specifically for kids in wheelchairs. The playground will feature colourful, springy surfaces that are soft, but solid, and facilitates wheelchair movement.

Let's All Lend A Hand
