💙Playground Spotlight: Accessible Safety Surfacing💙

One of the most important features of Reno’s All-Inclusive Playground is the cushioned, accessible safety surfacing. It is more than just flooring. It helps children of all abilities move, play, explore, and enjoy the playground together safely and independently.

Mrs.Cherry Harper was just in the hospital a short time ago and didn't even know anything. Today she showed up at Reno City hall with her famous checks mix for us. She loves spreading joy and love to everyone. We were so glad to see her. Thank Mrs. Harper you are such a blessing!

💙 Playground Spotlight: Accessible Ramp System 💙

At Reno Kiwanis Park, the ramp system helps make the playground accessible to more children and families.

Unlike traditional playgrounds that rely mainly on stairs, these ramps allow children using wheelchairs or mobility devices to reach elevated play areas and enjoy more of the playground alongside other kids.

The ramps also help parents, grandparents, caregivers, and younger children move through the playground more safely and comfortably.

Because inclusion means more than getting through the gate, it means getting to be part of the fun. 💙

💙 Playground Spotlight: Adaptive Support Swing 💙

At Reno's All-Inclusive Playground, every piece of equipment is designed with inclusion in mind.

This adaptive support swing is made for children who may need extra stability while swinging. The high back, side support, and safety straps help keep a child secure and upright, making it a great option for kids who may not be able to safely use a traditional swing on their own.

It allows more children to safely enjoy the motion, fun, and developmental benefits of swinging, like improving balance, coordination, and sensory processing.

As you visit, please help us keep this swing available for those who need the extra support.

Because every child deserves a safe way to play. 💙
