2. About Founder: Darlene Walden Supporters: Fishman's Fund, the City of Jackson, West Tennessee Healthcare, and the Jackson Civitan Club Public playground with the intent to be a desired place to visit for family outings and field trips
3. The playground is very clean and nice for all children to play on. The playground is huge!
9. These aspects of the playground help students learn sign language, matching, temperature, and seasons.
10. Interpret your findings Strengths: Not only can children play on this playground, they also can learn. This is a playground for ages 2-12, whether they have a disability or not. All of the areas are accessible and appear very safe. Weaknesses: No water fountains available No storage area for personal belongings
11. Suggestions for Improvement Additional swings for more children to play on (there are only 2 on site) More shaded areas for hot days Lockers/space for personal items to be locked up while playing First aid kits available Ramp leading up to slides for easier access for disabled children Water fountains Pay phone/emergency phone (there is a walking track, etc. beside it and even though most people have cell phones, it might be smart to have one in case of an emergency or if there are suspicious people around)
