Playgrounds
Hi my name is Andrew Marek and this is my first blog, I'm known as the Playground Man and have been supporting people with playground advise and development since 89.
I have worked with the Early Child Hood Sector, Primary/ High Schools and Private Play Environments. I know there is wide range of what people think a playground is, I believe a playground is any environment that allows for creative play.
What do you think?
