I just ...Have you read the website free range kids? I just stumbled on it, but you seem like you'd fit right in :) And I agree with you - I miss those old playgrounds. I was just on vacation in west virginia and the playground hasn't changed since the last time I was there about 15 years ago! I don't have any kids yet, but when I do I"m taking them there to experience a true playground experience :)meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05478264045706198065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345027719427538793.post-59022663341712437282010-10-20T16:02:35.912-05:002010-10-20T16:02:35.912-05:00Oh yeah, those were Real Playground fun stuff.

Kids are much too protected nowadays. As far as I know, only one girl broke an arm through my whole elementary education. And that was because she somehow climbed to the top of the swing set and then promptly fell the ten feet to the ground.M.M.E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09810117749263731836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345027719427538793.post-540968983421906602010-10-18T18:44:08.519-05:002010-10-18T18:44:08.519-05:00I remember yelling "faster faster!" whil...I remember yelling "faster faster!" while my dad spun the merry go round. Did he worry about my safety? Heck No! He took that baby up to warp speed and I held on for dear life while centripetal force attempted to fling me off into the sticker patches and rocks!

I remember the witches hat merry-go-rounds where the big kids could get on the inside and push the supports...you had to be careful not to get knocked down and dragged but boy could he merry-go-round fly. When the big kids had it going as fast as they could they would jump on and ride too.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03418200517338216765noreply@blogger.com
