In New York’s Central Park, some of the playgrounds constructed as part of the midcentury experimental “playground revolution” still remain. In Central Park's Adventure-Style Playgrounds, Marie Warsh tells the engrossing history of these playscapes built in the 1960s and 1970s, exploring their connections to the art, recreational design, urbanism, grassroots movements, and child-development theories of the period. She further details the Central Park Conservancy’s efforts decades later to preserve and renew these playgrounds. So-called adventure-style playgrounds featured interconnected forms including pyramids, mounds, and steps, and basic materials such as water and sand, encouraging new levels of creativity and interaction. By the end of the 1970s, ten of Central Park’s twenty-two existing playgrounds—formerly paved, sterile, standard-equipment-filled lots dating to the 1930s—had been transformed according to the new design ideals. With time, deterioration prompted concerns about safety, and much of the equipment was removed. However, community interest led the Central Park Conservancy to update and preserve the playgrounds that remained in the park. Building on successful aspects of the playgrounds, designers incorporated new technologies, materials, and equipment that reflect contemporary ideas about children’s play and approaches to urban park management. They also developed strategies to better integrate them into the landscapes of the park. Today, Central Park’s adventure-style playgrounds represent significant works of renewed modern landscape architecture as well as models for new thinking about playground design.

As society becomes increasingly sedentary and obsessed with screens, it is more important than ever to emphasize the importance of spending time outdoors. Research has shown that outdoor play can enhance physical health, cognitive development, emotional well-being, and social skills in children. By engaging in activities such as climbing trees, building forts, and exploring natural landscapes, children are able to strengthen their muscles, improve their coordination, and boost their immune systems. Furthermore, nature provides endless opportunities for creative and imaginative play, allowing children to invent games, storylines, and adventures that foster their creativity and problem-solving skills. The unpredictability of the outdoors also teaches children resilience and adaptability as they learn to navigate natural obstacles and challenges. Additionally, outdoor play promotes a sense of wonder and curiosity in children, encouraging them to ask questions, make discoveries, and develop a lifelong love of learning. Through Nature's Playground,parents, educators, and caregivers will gain a deeper understanding of why outdoor play is essential for children's overall development. We provide practical tips and suggestions for incorporating outdoor play into a child's daily routine, regardless of the weather or season. From exploring neighborhood parks to camping in the wilderness, there are endless possibilities for connecting children with the natural world and allowing them to reap the benefits of outdoor play. Join us on a journey through Nature's Playgroundas we explore the wonders of the natural world and learn how outdoor play can positively impact children's physical, emotional, and cognitive growth. Let's rediscover the joy and wonder of playing outside and help children thrive in a world that is increasingly disconnected from nature.

How can community art build connection in diverse communities? Where is the art in contemporary libraries? How do you bring subway art into the classroom? Drawing on an abundance of examples from Finland, Italy, New Zealand, Spain and the USA, including the NYC 2nd Ave Subway, the Detroit's Heidelberg Project, the Favel Painting Foundation and bicycle rack sculpture, Szekely inspires readers to look beyond the classroom walls to develop meaningful art experiences for students. She shows the myriad art forms, media expressions, and design professions that have the influence and potential to shape the local environment, reaching far beyond the traditional museum and gallery venue. Underpinned by a clear philosophical foundation, the field-tested approaches show readers how to go beyond the study of reproductions or dwelling on of the masters who are framed in art museums, instead having meaningful art experiences using everyday objects and diverse collective experiences. She also shows that innovative and exciting art lessons don't need large amounts of funding, transportation or even a museum within the local community. Each chapter includes photographs, talking points and key lesson ideas along with links to further resources.
