Play & Park Structures

Healthy Exercise disguised as fun!

At Play & Park Structures, we make it our mission to turn on children’s imaginations by opening a Gateway to Imaginative Play. Imaginative play is the key to mastering critical social, emotional, and physical life skills.

Play is an essential part of child development and physical activity is an essential part of a healthy lifestyle. Full body balance, core strength, and upper body exercise are some of the most important factors in fitness today. Play equipment is the perfect venue for teaching children the healthy habit of making physical activity a part of their daily life. The health and well being of the whole child depends on the opportunities they have to develop their minds and bodies, which makes outdoor play time essential to their development. With guidance from parents and teachers, children develop healthy habits that they carry with them into adulthood.

Play & Park Structures is committed to helping children meet the benchmarks set in today’s schools, that is why we are continuously offering new and innovative products. Play & Park Structures is the first playground equipment company to offer standards-based activities for outdoor play to maximize the value of your playground and helping children meet their physical and developmental goals.

The Play & Park Outdoor & Creative Play and Learning System is a valuable resource for maximizing the opportunity for creative play and standards-based learning in the great outdoors. Taking classroom lessons to the playground, that are typically taught indoors, get kids moving and learning while meeting required content standards and having a whole lot of fun. This unique system helps teachers appreciate and find learning opportunities in the everyday discoveries that occur on the playground.

The Outdoor Creative Play & Learning System provides standards-based activities to use with a new or existing playground. The activity cards are aligned to national standards in these key content areas: language areas, mathematics, science, social studies, physical education, health, and the creative arts. The playground’s structures, open spaces, and natural surroundings are the perfect place for constructive, creative play and learning! Whether during free or directed play, the equipment and space can be “imagined” into anything, and other children and instructors are involved to keep the fun going or take it in new directions. Nurturing creativity and imagination increases a child’s learning potential and gives him or her inner resources that will last a lifetime.

As said by Karl Wilhelm von Humboldt, “True enjoyment comes from activity of the mind and exercise of the body; the two are united.” A Play & Park playground is so much more than a colorful jungle gym; it is a key component of the childhood experience.
