Looking for Creative Outdoor Play Environments
May 23, 2007
Hope is like a road in the country: there was never a road, but when many people walk on it, the road comes into existence.

I am very interested in this topic. We have a space behind our building that we want to turn into a environmentally enriching creative space for children to breathe in nature and make all kinds of new discoveries. We asked our children for input but we want to complete the design before school begins in the fall. Our intent is for the children to help us create it.
My question to you is if you find any great resources with pictures--if possible would you email us the source. My hope is we will have Phase one of our project--the design and layout completed by the time your article is printed.
It is a very important topic.
