Trends in Play Space Design
Feb. 2 | 11:30 a.m.
Activity, engagement and involvement.
Parks today face the challenge of providing environments that will attract children and families to engage, play and stay. To compete with indoor, more sedentary activities. In this session, we will examine playground trends that create kid magnets, facilitate multi-generational interaction and signature playgrounds that tell a community story. Discussions will also focus on the opportunities for stronger collaboration between playground designers and park planners.
We are authorized to provide .2 CEUs and 1.5 PDHs, which meet Health, Safety and Welfare credits.
Evidence-Based Landscape & Playground Design
Feb. 9 | 11:30 a.m.
Transforming play into development.
More than just play, children with developmental disorders benefit from strategically designed sensory playgrounds and sensory gardens. A study, completed by the STAR Center in Denver, Colo., evaluated the outcomes of outdoor play by children, therapists and families experiencing the play space as a natural setting for rich, multisensory occupational therapy interactions.

A Higher Level of Inclusive Play
Feb. 16 | 11:30 a.m.
A new approach to inclusive playground design.
Playgrounds are a place for play and learning—where kids develop physical and cognitive skills and build social relationships. However, not all playgrounds are welcoming to people of varying abilities. During this continuing education session, you will learn about the changing population of children on the playground, and how to create playground designs that meet their unique needs.

All Ages, All Abilities, All the Time
Feb. 23 | 11:30 a.m.
How socially sustainable are your parks?
Parks today face the challenge of providing environments where all visitors can feel safe, secure and fully engaged. Universal design increases usability, safety, health and social participation. Discover how applying the principles of universal design can ultimately contribute to social equity and social sustainability. Playground Planners will be provided practical examples of how to create park and recreation spaces that encourage health and wellness for individuals of all ages and abilities.
