Lagniappe Park Playground
Lagniappe Park - Phase 1 - Inclusive Playground
Inclusive playgrounds make a fundamental statement about how communities value meaningful play experiences for people of all ages and abilities. We believe in creating play environments where everybody can play, focusing on both the physical and social aspects of inclusion and the development of the whole child. The 7 Principles of Inclusive Playground Design® is a comprehensive design guide for creating truly inclusive play spaces. It was created by researchers, architects, and play experts at Utah State University Center for Persons with Disabilities in partnership with PlayCore, and it's the basis for our commitment to evidence-based inclusive design.
Lagniappe Park was designed with our 7 principles of play and is a National Demonstration Site (NDS) for Inclusion.
