Kids love rain! Even when it’s cold outside and the temperatures drop, the kids want to play outside. Really?
It’s really fun to jump through the puddles when you’re wrapped in layers of shirts, a warm coat, a fleece hat, gloves and boots.
Safety in playgrounds is important all year round, but in winter there are important highlights that must be observed,
and instruct the children how to play in the playgrounds safely. The highlights are:
1. The play facilities are slippery.
In winter, the various elements are slippery and covered with water, which can cause slipping.
Therefore, it is mandatory to use playgrounds in a careful and controlled manner and without running on playground surfaces .
2. Moving the infrastructure of game facilities .
Due to a lot of water sediments, water may seep to the bottom of the playground facilities and cause the concrete infrastructure in the various facilities to shift.
Therefore, it is mandatory to check the stability of the gaming device before using it by pushing it back and forth.
3. Water flooding in slides and crawl tunnels .
In winter, water may accumulate at the exit from the slide and in the tunnels .
Therefore, it is mandatory to check the openings and tunnels before the children enter to play in them.
