Shade Is The Most Important Safety Feature For Your Playground

08/31/2020

Shade seems pretty unimportant when it comes to playground safety, after all, making sure play structures are built properly and swing set parts are not worn out seem to be at the top of the safety checklist, but shade is very important, if not the most important safety feature on a playground. So if shade is the most important safety feature, why is it overlooked so often?

Answer: People don’t realize how HOT playground equipment and surfaces can get!

Let’s find out just how hot a play area can get on an average sunny summer day.

Burns is not the only thing to worry about, children’s skin is especially sensitive to direct sunlight because they don’t have as many pigment cells as adults do. Children burn faster and cumulative skin damage starts with the first exposure, one bad sunburn in childhood could cause skin cancer 30 years later. Improper shade over your playground area can cause children to overheat and adults can have heat strokes resulting in a trip to the hospital.

So you can see why shade is a very important component of playground safety. It prevents heat exhaustion, heat strokes, second and third-degree burns, skin cancer and so much more!
