Comments

There are several types of swings allowing for various body support including laying and fully supported seating.The main play structure is fully ramped with landings between for longer ramps. Around the perimeter are a variety of activity areas including visual, sound and tactile at ground level. There is a small structure with a slide and a climbing feature. From scarletssmile.org: It includes an "18,000-square-foot barrier-free playground with a specialized rubberized surface to accommodate wheelchairs. The equipment will include double-wide ramps for easy passage of wheelchairs, shaded play decks and tunnels, zip lines, swings, sensory play equipment, teeter-totters, merry-go-rounds, climbing structures, special slides that don’t create static electricity, a learning wall with brail letters, an imagination table, and, per Scarlet’s request, a rocket ship and more!"
