Playground Safety for Young Children
Each year more than 200,000 children are treated in hospital emergency rooms for
injuries that occurred on playgrounds. Falls to the surface are the most common cause of
playground injuries. Forty percent of these injuries are related to inadequate supervision.
Make sure that areas where children play are safe and sound with the following
guidelines:
• B
efore you visit a playground with
children, check to make sure that play
areas are designed to allow an adult to
clearly see kids while they’re playing
on all the equipment.
• A
lways supervise children at the
playground – no exceptions.
Age Appropriate
Equipment
It’s important to note that not all
playground equipment is built to be
used by children of all ages. Children
of different ages are physically and
developmentally different. Playgrounds
are often designed for multiple age
groups. Help children stay safe by
limiting their exploration to equipment
that is inappropriate for them.
• C
heck the equipment’s temperature
before letting children play on it.
Metal equipment can cause serious
burns in hot, sunny weather.
• T
he playground surface should be
free of standing water and debris that
could cause kids to trip and fall, such
as rocks, tree stumps, and tree roots.
• N
ever let a child play on playground
equipment wearing clothing with
drawstrings or items around their
necks or bicycle helmets.
• A
ll hardware on equipment should be
secure, with no loose or broken parts.
Plastic and wood should show no signs of
weakening, and there should not be any splintered or rusted surfaces.
• K
now which types of equipment are appropriate for your child’s age, and make sure
that they plays on appropriate equipment for his or her age group.
• Make sure that elevated surfaces, like platforms and ramps, have guardrails to prevent falls.
• C
heck the playground’s surfacing; hard surfacing like asphalt, concrete, dirt and/or
grass should never be used under equipment.
• M
ake sure the loose-fill material is at the proper depth. Most playground safety groups
recommend 12 inches of loose-fill material.
• C
heck playgrounds for dangerous screws and bolts before children play. A child’s
clothing can catch on dangerous hardware and that may cause a serious injury.
• C
heck the playground regularly to see that the equipment is in good condition and free
of broken or missing parts and/or hardware. Wood equipment should be free of rot
and splinters, and plastic equipment should not be cracked.
• T
eaching young children how to play safely is important because if they know the rules
of the playground, they’re less likely to get hurt.
Playground Areas
for Preschoolers
should have:
•Smaller steps and crawl spaces.
•Low platforms with short
ladders or ramps with grips.
•Shorter slides, usually less than
four feet high.
•No rope or chain climbers hung
at an angle, horizontal bars, or
sliding poles.
• R
eport any unsafe condition immediately to the owner or operator of the playground:
principal of the school, director of the childcare center or director of the park.
