Playground Equipment

What are some of your best memories from your early days of school, preschool, or daycare? You probably remember a favorite teacher or two, but some of the most formative times for children don’t always occur inside the classroom – they occur outside on the playground!

It’s hard to imagine a school or a preschool without a playground because playgrounds are such fundamental components of a young child’s growth and development. Childhood learning experts point to many benefits of physical play for kids, including the development of dexterity, creativity, cognitive skills, social skills, and emotional management. The stress release a schoolchild gains from play also help put that child in a better mindset for learning when they return to the classroom.

In fact, many states have passed laws requiring elementary schools to allow at least 20-30 minutes of daily physical activity for students. And laws have been on the books for years requiring preschools and childcare facilities to give each child (no matter how young) the opportunity for outdoor play every day, weather conditions permitting. In other words, providing children opportunities to play outside isn’t just a good idea – it’s actually the law! And there’s really no better facility for play than a commercial playground from Carolina Recreation & Design!

Playgrounds aren’t just good for children on school days; they’re good for children every day, including at weekend church activities! No doubt your church wants to be a place that’s friendly for families and children, which is why adding a commercial playground is one of the best investments your church or faith center can make. And adding a playground doesn’t just provide direct benefits for the families that are already a part of your congregation; it will also help you to attract other young families to visit.

A commercial playground is perfect for use by your Sunday School classes, children’s ministry groups, church social events, after worship services, or any other time! Here at Carolina Recreation & Design, we’re proud to have provided quality custom church playground equipment to churches across our region, and we’d be happy to work with you and your congregation as well

Hospitals and local medical centers are where people go when they require professional medical attention. Some of those patients are adults with young children, and sometimes the patients are children themselves. For children who have to spend a lot of time at a hospital while visiting other family members, a playground can be a welcome respite to an atmosphere which can start to feel stifling or even boring to a child.

For children who are patients, or who are required to remain for extended stays for treatment or rehab, a playground offers more than just a place to play. Allowing sick and recovering children to enjoy playground equipment does more than just lift their spirits. It can also produce endorphins that help relieve stress, and even serve to speed the healing process. A commercial playground from Carolina Recreation & Design is really a sound investment for any hospital or medical center to make.

One of the advantages to living in a master-planned community is having convenient amenities located right in your neighborhood, and one of the best investments your HOA can make is in a commercial playground for your young families to enjoy. Public parks are wonderful places for individuals and families to come and enjoy the great out-of-doors, and no park is complete without having its own array of playground equipment and play structures. Community centers like YMCAs work with children year-round, which means they also need a safe, well-designed place for children to play outside, too.

And another advantage of having playgrounds and play structures at locations like HOA neighborhoods, parks, and community centers? They help to get children outside and away from their screens! There’s really no substitute for the health benefits that come from being able to stretch your legs, work your body, take in some fresh air and sunlight, and build social connections with others. Carolina Recreation & Design is happy to serve local HOAs, local and state parks, and community centers.
