안전놀이터 Many of us was raised playing in playgrounds as children. It had been another time then and in the summer you can play unsupervised from sunup to sundown, taking breaks only to grab an awesome drink of water from the hose. Things are much different nowadays and another of the changes in playground safety generally. Nowadays over 80% of public playgrounds have some sort of protective surface around the equipment. Backyard playground are much different - only about 9% of home backyard playgrounds have any kind of protective surfaces, and most have only grass or dirt. According to the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) this leads to over 69% of the 50,000 yearly injuries in an outdoor playground. They are mostly injuries that may be prevented by using some type of playground tiles or other protective surface. There are many forms of surfaces you may use to help protect your children. 안전놀이터 isn't recommended because kids can track everything over and remove it from the gear area and get it to them. Wood mulch is way better but constant maintenance and replenishment of the mulch is needed, otherwise low areas - bald spots occur where kids will get injured. Rubber mulch or rubber pellets are far better in terms of cushioning and protection, however these have exactly the same problems as sand or wood mulch - they too can get tracked away from the gear or hazard area. Probably the best protective surface to use is rubber playground tiles, also called playground mats. Rubber playground tiles are excellent because you will get a variety of thicknesses, from 1" to 4 1-4". This is great as the CPSC has a statistic called the "Critical Height of Playground Equipment", that is the highest point that kids will get to on any little bit of playground equipment. Once you know the critical height, you can figure out the thickness of playground tiles or mulch that's needed for that area. The rubber playground tiles also have holes on underneath of them so they fit on just about any surface. You can get different colors of tiles to fit the color scheme of the playground or make nice designs. They're also green and crafted from recycled rubber. They have interlocking edges so they're easy to install and the rubber material is breathable and resistant to damage. However, in the event that some tiles do get damaged or exhausted, you can simply replace that tile or section of tiles. When assembling the tiles, a small amount of strong adhesive is used to connect them, this way kids can't pry them apart. Water dries on them quickly because the water doesn't pool up. Lastly these rubber tiles comes in bright, primary colors that many kids love.
