Additional Guidelines and Recommendations

  • Children are never left alone in play areas, even if the area is fenced.
  • The amount of supervision needed will depend on the age of the children and the type of activity.
  • Children age 2-6:
    • Need constant supervision.
    • Need simple rules, which are enforced.
  • Children age 7 and up:
    • May require less intense supervision, but an adult should always be present.
    • Explain and enforce rules, including consequences of unsafe play.
