Experts agree that children with disabilities are like all other children. To progress they need to develop their cognitive, psychomotor and social skills, as well as their independence. They want to enjoy themselves like everyone else, with everyone else.
At Proludic inclusion has always been a key aspect of our philosophy. We believe that all children should have access to the same play facilities.
As a provider of playgrounds for over 25 years, Proludic has developed considerable expertise in disability and inclusion. We are now taking our approach a step further. As a member of NovaCHILD, a network dedicated to innovation for the well-being of children, Proludic has committed to working with its experts. This includes researchers, health professionals, universal design specialists, and support associations for children with disabilities.
Together we have identified the specific features and needs of less able children in play areas. We have also identified measures that can be taken to compensate for differences and ensure accessibility for all.
The results from this work have been included in our new Inclusive Play Areas Thematic Guide. We recommend that developers refer back to this for every accessible play area design. We have provided data on various challenges facing children and describe specific features, needs and possible solutions for creating a successful inclusive play area.
The information highlights the inclusive play functions and benefits of items of Proludic play equipment. This will help designers select the right play equipment for inclusive play areas.
The Inclusive Play Areas Guide contains a wealth of information. Therefore, it is a very useful resource for anybody involved in providing playgrounds. It also includes some exciting new Proludic inclusive play products.
