"Play is an activity enjoyed for its own sake. It is our brain's favorite way of learning and maneuvering.
" --Diane Ackerman
The Land: An Adventure Playground
"The Land, so named by the children who use it, is an adventure playground in North Wales, one of hundreds of such playgrounds in the United Kingdom and Europe. The United States has only around ten adventure playgrounds, which include adult play workers who manage hazards while the children themselves learn to manage their own risks. Children gain a sense of accomplishment and empowerment while having fun using cast off items and a variety of tools, with permission to play freely with the materials at hand."

What lessons can you take from the adventure playground concept to utilize with the children in your life?
