ABSTRACT
Public parks often lack the presence of adult play supervisors although parental supervision is necessary for young pre-school age children. Unsupervised playgrounds in public parks are, in general, the public space with the most limited play potential. This does not need to be the case but it is a reality in most of the western world. The current interpretations and implementations of the demand for accessibility and play for all children in public parks threaten to make these areas even more boring.
