Description: "Playgrounds offer children the opportunity to slide, seesaw, swing, climb, skate, and do much more. They enhance children's motor skills along with their social interaction skills. Playgrounds are considered the most important areas for children and [youth] outside the home and school environment. The key to the success of this ... design task is the productive cooperation of architects and designers, landscape architects and urban planners, educators, artists and play equipment manufacturers ... The projects selected ... all have one thing in common - they offer fantasy worlds and play oases that combine the highest levels of aesthetics and design, play, adventure and safety to provide children with room to unfold their creativity and share it with others."--Back cover.
