Welcome to accessibleplayground.net new Playground Directory.

This directory lists playgrounds that have inclusive and accessible features. Yes, we would all love to have the perfect inclusive playground in our neighborhood. But we know that is not reality. Here you can find the best of the best as well as playgrounds that have added accessible swing seats or other accessible feature.

We know that it is difficult to push a wheelchair through wood mulch (EWF) and we have done our best to let you know about the surfacing.

In the BIO section, you will find a description of the playground. In the NOTES section, you will find information about the park the playground resides.

All of the playgrounds (at the time of publication) are open to the public. Any of the playgrounds located at schools, you can assume are open afterschool and on weekends. You may want to call the school to check on the opening times.

We have done our best to give as much information as we can find to describe the playgrounds. But we cannot visit all of these playgrounds, so please let us know what we are missing by submitting the park using the button below.

Biography Designed, manufactured, and installed by Psagot Playgrounds for the Rosh HaAyin Municipality, this playground is especially accessible; including a giant central integrated play system, as well as numerous other playground equipment. The central play system is specially adapted for independent play for those using wheelchairs and includes an entrance ramp and sloping bridges that are 2 stories high and 48 meters long(!!). These bridges are suitable for independent play for wheelchair-bound children, and special handrails are installed along with all the panels. In addition, in the panels along the bridges there are various game boards and musical instruments; all suitable for playing from a wheelchair. A Braille writing game greets those entering the structure and accompanies the players along their way. Because the playground is meant to integrate children of all abilities, children who are not in wheelchairs have additional and varied bridges for crawling and walking; and at the bottom of the play system is a huge cable network that can be climbed to the second floor. Combined in the panels and roofs are colored stained glass panels for games of light and shadow and color, and all the colors of the fixtures and rubber in the infrastructure were selected in consultation with an accessibility specialist and a specialist in visual impairments. What else is in the playground? * A wheelchair-accessible merry-go-round that is suitable for 2 chairs simultaneously, along with additional players. * An accessible globe spinner * A seesaw that enables easy transfer to and from a wheelchair * A special swing for wheelchairs * Accessible swings of 2 other types * Outdoor musical instruments for playing actual songs; a xylophone, a musical flower, drums and more * Flower talk tubes transmit sounds between two flowers on different sides of the playground * Accessible hammocks * Accessible spring disc * A panel for taking souvenir photographs And many other game panels for developing the mind and hand muscles.

The playground entrance features art murals by Mattawoman Creek Art Center artists Bob Kenyon and Gene McCandless, and the fishing theme can be seen throughout the playground as over 65 hand-painted fish dot every piece of equipment.

Biography We have included this playground because there is a fence, a spray park, adapted swing seat, and good surfacing. For many children, this is makes it accessible and inclusive. For others, they may need more adaptations. There are two main play structures, one standard one for younger children and one for larger with several slides, several kinds of climbing walls, a rope wall, monkey bars, suspended “mushrooms”, and two kinds of spinners: one standing and one hanging. There are several swings including infant and adapted swing seat. There’s a balance beam as well. The playground also includes a small football-themed spray ground, fenced from the main playground. There are beautiful bathrooms, a perfectly smooth blacktop walking/biking path, lighted ball fields, and the train comes by every so often (visible from the playground but not next to it). – See more at: http://www.njplaygrounds.com/3316/snyder-ave-park-berkeley-heights-nj/#sthash.RsKn83qN.dpuf
