Playground Safety
Do not engage in rough play around the equipment.
Go down the slide feet first on your seat.
While on the swings, hold on with both hands and don't swing too high.
Do not jump off the swings. This avoids landing on others or turning or breaking an ankle.
Report any equipment that is broken or in need of repair.
Be careful of splinters on wooden equipment.
