Frequently Asked Questions

What counts as an accessible or inclusive playground?

An accessible or inclusive playground should reduce real barriers to play. Useful signals include accessible routes, smoother surfacing, ramps or transfer access, adaptive swings, sensory play, communication supports, fencing, shade, and nearby restrooms.

Can I filter for specific access needs?

Yes. The directory supports filters for mobility features, sensory and communication supports, surfacing, shade, restroom access, family amenities, safety features, toddler-friendly sites, fully fenced sites, and verified listings.

Are all playground details verified?

No. Verification status appears on each listing when available. Families should still confirm critical details such as hours, restroom access, surfacing, construction closures, and adaptive equipment before making a special trip.
