First, the playground was equipped with soft rubber surfacing under the swings, at the base of the slides, and the entrance to the ramps. It also had an accessible swing, a drink fountain that contains three different height basins. A picnic table that is accessible from the playground, and it allows a wheelchair to maneuver up to the table. In addition to transfer platforms and balconies with activity panels. Based on my observations, the 3 suggestions I have to improve the environment are: First, provide an accessible way children can get to the “roundabout.” A child in a wheelchair would not be able to maneuver a wheelchair through the woodchips. Second, an accessible ramp, or perhaps lower the “roundabout” for a child in a wheelchair to be able to transfer into it. The roundabout sat pretty high off the ground. Third, a low noise level and minimal visual stimulation sensory environment, or area designs for children to experience reduce noise
