Week 2

The designs for the playgrounds must be safe, as in not to high or children may have altophobia(Scared of Heights) having 'handrails' to pro tect themselves from falling off without noticing, or having slides to up high that even the kids don't dare to get on, or stuff that can be detached and chewed on or eaten bla bla bla.........

The materials must be suitable like the last few posts speaking of proper materials. Since this playground is in the sun, certain factors must be noticed such as the material, like plastic, used carefully as it heats up and when it does, the playground becomes hotter than normal. Certain shelters must also be erected at the playground like a shelter over the slide or swing as not to get a heat stroke, common nowadays.

The designs are still being worked on for the fianl few decisions (still a very long way to go) the designs include mini rock climbings, bridges, ladders, swings, slides, ropes or cross ropes for walking on carefully and climbing, maybe even some seesaws around or round-abouts, still deciding....

We have found some suitable materials such as silicone sponge rubber, haven't yet searched for wood, the SSR (Silicone Sponge Rubber) can stand under the heat well, strong blablabla...... Haven't searched for metals..........Ask Liang Da.........

Everybody trying to get online together at msn at the smae time so won't mess things up to badly and get things started like on the 25th of March when we all got online(almost all) and started to spam all pictures of playgrounds and material items into this blog crazily and made good progress.
