Ep. 101 History of the Playground!
Manage episode 364374160 series 2846959
Well hello Wanderers! Wonderful to see you here again!
Today we have a very special episode suggested to us by one of our college friends and avid listeners Rustle and his daughter Nora!!! Thank you very much to you both for your suggestion and continued support of the podcast!
Today we are diving into the exciting history of the playground. From their humble beginnings of just piles of sand, to supervised and structured play, to their now nostalgic plastic equipment and wood mulch padding. Playgrounds have sure come a long way.
So please, grab a energizing snack, a juice box and join us as we dive in!
