Lincoln-Eliot Elementary School

All kids are created equal with the same desire and need to experience play – play that challenges and inspires them physically, stimulates their cognitive growth, and fosters emotional and social connections.  A well-designed inclusive playground welcomes children and adults of all abilities into a shared space where everyone can interact, engage, and have fun together.  Play is not only a source of joy but also an essential part of childhood development, critical for the healthy growth of both the brain and the body.  By offering opportunities that disguise learning and growth as fun, inclusive playgrounds support children’s physical, emotional, cognitive, and social development in ways that build confidence, friendships, and community.
