This most welcome book describes many attempts that have recently been made to create places where children can fruitfully use their leisure time and where the can find the freedom to develop self-confidence and retain their resilience. In these playgrounds children feel secure in their own domain and are freed from too much adult intrusion in their affairs. There are space and materials for those with many different talent and the private child can find twilight and shadown where he or she can live his or her own private life. Adventure playgrounds are perhaps the most revolutionary experiment we know for absorbing the interest and releasing the energies of young people. It is the author's hope that this excellent book will help to unseal the closed eyes of many of those who are concerned with planning the environment where families will love. If we continue to disregard the innate curiosity and spontaneous gaiety of children by crushing these precious fifts during the early years, they are unlikely to reappear in later life and the adult world will be immeasurabley the poorer. This book is the first, and long overdue, attempt to bring together the wide and varied experiences of many dediciated people who have wrestled over the years with the complex problems of creating and maintaining adventure playgrounds. Discusses playground contributions from: Britain, Switzerland, West Germany, Denmark, Sweden, the United States, and Japan. Also discusses indoor and outdoor facilities.
