A playground or play area is a place with a specific design for children be able to play there. It may be indoors but is typically outdoors (where it may be called a tot lot in some regions.)
Modern playgrounds often have recreational equipment such as the seesaw, merry-go-round, swingset, slide, jungle gym, chin-up bars, sandbox, spring rider, monkey bars, overhead ladder, trapeze rings, playhouses, and mazes, many of which help children develop physical coordination, strength, and flexibility, as well as providing recreation and enjoyment. Common in modern playgrounds are play structures that link many different pieces of equipment.
Playgrounds often also have facilities for playing informal games of adult sports, such as a baseball diamond, a skating arena, a basketball court, or a tether ball.
Public playground equipment refers to equipment intended for use in the play areas of parks, schools, child care facilities, institutions, multiple family dwellings, restaurants, resorts, and recreational developments, and other areas of public use.
Do you ever stop, stop and wonder
What it is you want
Live your life by their expectation
Pride before a fall
Try to find the truth before it finds you
Or you may get hurt
When you realise the situation's
Out of your control
To the adventure playground
I'm coming out to play
Don't be scared to voice your opinion
Spray it on the wall
Then you'll realise perhaps your friends
Are not your friends at all
Do you ever stop, stop and wonder
Who it is you know
Always someone there to impress you
With their bright ideas
To the adventure playground
