What makes a park a good park?
One important structure
at a “good” park is the sun shading. A park can set itself aside from others in
terms of comfort, safety and appearance that cannot be substituted with other
items.
In the
summer, the sun blazes down on playgrounds so harshly that people just don’t
want to go there if there is no shading. Does your park have sufficient shading?
The importance of adequate shading
Sun shade
structures are improving alongside technology and material enhancements. They
are more creatively planned and come in almost any form imaginable.
Shading
can be added to existing playgrounds and can create an aesthetic improvement at
your park. Structures can be used over benches as well to shield parents while
they watch their children.
As the
temperature increases during summertime, the play structure materials get very
hot and can burn the kids who are trying to play. Future skin cancer can be
prevented by minimizing the effects of UV rays to the body.
How can
kids combat these issues and still be able to go outside in hot weather? With
adequate shade! The correct type of shade fabric can improve shade systems to
cool down playgrounds up to 20 degrees. Wow! That can be the difference of
staying inside all day or going out to have fun.
Starting
a shade project
Planning the shade project for your park involves
taking several key steps. Which material will be used? There are fabric,
umbrella or steel shelters to name a few.
Will the material need to be waterproof? This could
come in handy – in addition to minimizing sun exposure. Who will be installing
the structure? You will want to make sure the money is well spent.
Creating a comfortable atmosphere for the whole
family!
A great playground
that is set aside from the rest is a place with simple extras. It allows families
to be outside playing longer. Shade structures are about as important as
drinking fountains for kids – and parents. They should be safe and clean for
kids, with all the equipment in working condition.
Playgrounds should
be used more often. They are a place where people can go out and be reminded of
places where people can have fun without relying upon technology.
Make it
shady!
The more inviting
the playground, the more families will be out creating a stronger community
with one another. Playgrounds with shading get more use and are a better place
for families to enjoy one another.
