73 Adventure Playground

May be part of Common Land (67), Connected Play (68).

Conflict

A castle, made of cartons, rocks, and old branches, by a group of children for themselves, is worth a thousand perfectly detailed, exactly finished castles, made for them in a factory.

Resolution

Set up a playground for the children in each neighbourhood. Not a highly finished playground, with asphalt and swings, but a place with raw materials of all kinds- nets, boxes, barrels, trees, ropes, simple tools, frames, grass, and water- where children can create and re-create playgrounds of their own.

May contain Sunny Place (161), Bike Paths and Racks (56), Garden Growing Wild (172), Child Caves (203), Sitting Wall (243).
