There are two preschool climbing structures on the playground for children aged 2 to 5 years old and the wooden play structure is designed for children aged 3 to 11 years old. Both play structures are properly anchored. There is adequate cushioning in fall zones of climbers provided by rubber chips. Drinking water is available via the children’s own water bottles or zippy cups. LPAs observed all hazardous items on the playground to be inaccessible to children. Applicant Louise Kristofferson was reminded that any changes to the facility must be reported to and approved by Community Care Licensing.
