This design seems to be the most inclusive, but more could be added. With whatever design is chosen, I'd like to see more wheelchair-accessible features, such a wheelchair accessible swing. Communication Board, such as this one would also a great way to support ALL children to be able to play https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQglskZBAdB4VIFZAKlHyUiAikKlwaBpQvbnKksf7X9CBsi0fE-TkXMxK1AMcViqMe8uyo&usqp=CAU

Each has its own charm. Use all three in different parks.

My kids unequivocally chose option 3. "Complex and cool."

I voted for this due to the inclusivity of ability in the plan, as well as the spacing. I’m hoping that the pathways for the structure are wheelchair accessible and roll up to/wheelchair height items could be incorporated, like a wheelchair height sand or water table or rolling manipulative that’s stationary. I was hoping not to see wood chips and more so a rubberized mat material that would be wheelchair accessible. I Ike the diversity of equipment in this design.

Of all three options, I like this one the most because of the "extras" around the site with climbing, balancing, and spinning activities. There are lots of options for kids to choose from. However, I prefer the main play structure (age 5-12) and the small play structure (age 2-5) from Option 2. I like the height of the slide, the bridge, and the hammocks below on the main play structure in Option 2 and that the small child structure from Option 2 includes two slides for littles. If we could replace these two structures on Option 3, it would be phenomenal.

@Shelise Marbut Great idea, maybe merge the two a bit?
