CEU Session Description:
Do challenge and risk belong on the playground? As safety standards evolve, designers and agencies are increasingly asked to balance protection with opportunities for meaningful play. This session examines how rope-based playgrounds reintroduce manageable risk in ways that align with modern safety standards. We’ll explore the evolution of playground design and connect recent research on risky play to its benefits for children, including building confidence, resilience, and creativity. By unpacking the critical distinction between risk and hazard and reviewing key safety standards, attendees will leave with practical strategies for integrating developmentally beneficial risk into contemporary play environments.
