"No Limits"
Playground 4 All
The picture on
the right shows the entire playground before the tram enclosed it.
With the
sun shining on the playground, who wouldn't like to enjoy the activities
of this park?
This area has a
giant caterpillar that can be gently ridden by
children. The access path allows for wheelchairs to gain entry.
The tower
at the entrance to the playground stands tall and has glowing decor for
easy identification from anywhere in the playground.
This picture shows
the tower entrance area and the laser tag, virtual snowboarding area, and
the video games that must be entered to play. All areas of this display
are accessibile by all mobilities.
The handicapped
accessible vehicle is available at all times for touring the playground,
or assisting people who need help.
There are
also other machines availabe to help set activities to the correct level,
or lift children's wheelchairs to the correct level for access and participation.
The connecting tubing
allows children to walk easily from one activity to another, while providing
cover for wheelchairs.
The lake, garden,
hiking area, and water activities have something for everyone. There
are even animals from wet environments to handle and explore.
The DC 5th grade
students watch as their playground is being readied for a guided tour by
another team.
This picture shows
the entire DC "No Limits" playground area with surrounding tram for easy
access to all areas and activities.
This picture
shows the labeled parts of the entrance, playground plans, and students
watching.
The video arcade
allows children of all mobilities access on the same level.
We wish this idea
for a borderless playground could be a reality. However, we hope
you have enjoyed your tour of our DC "No Limits" Playground.
