Children played a big role designing this playground

This pheasant-themed playground is designed in collaboration with 3-5 year old children from the local daycare. The pheasant-theme originated when the children thought of their dream playground and wished for a bird theme. The playground now features a central theme focused on a pheasant.

Children´s wishes came true with the help of Lappset MyDesign service

This custom playground stands out with vibrant play equipment and inclusive solutions. The park has drawn inspiration from children´s own wishes, especially the pheasant-theme.

Children from the daycare spent a design day at the playground. During the day, they chose birds, specifically pheasants, as a theme. The children actively participated by selecting play elements that interested them for the playground. They made choices by running to a picture representing their preferred play element and sharing their ideas about their dream playgrounds with the designers. The children wished for the park to have lots of colours, swings and a big sandbox.

Educators were also involved in designing this playground from an educational perspective.

Play is self-actualization and self-expression; it is a language of its own. Play needs time, space, and the work of a playful mindset to become realized in human life.
