Typically, licensing guidelines and state laws mandate that a playground must have grass, slides, swings (that only swing in two directions), climbing equipment, and ride-on toys.There are no specific requirements but you should provide a variety of age-appropriate play equipment for climbing, pulling, pushing, riding and balancing activities. The CDC requires that children be exposed to as much variety as possible on the playground, combining natural materials with man-made materials.
