With the development and progress of society, people pay more attention to children's entertainment needs than before. This is the development of the playground industry. Many playground equipment suppliers or manufacturers have appeared all over the world. Nowadays, if you want to build a playground, whether indoors or outdoors, it will be easy. Here, I will show you some ideas to build a community outdoor playground.
1. Needs Survey and Assessment
To build a community outdoor playground, the first thing to do is to conduct questionnaires and interviews with local residents, parents and children to understand their needs and expectations, and analyze the age structure, population density and family composition of the community to determine the appropriate type of facilities.
2. Planning and Design
You need to choose an appropriate location to ensure convenient transportation, high safety, and no disturbance to residents. Of course, if it is in a residential area, there is no need to worry about this. After determining the location, you collect the CAD drawings or length, width and height information of the space, take photos of the it, and find a reliable amusement facility design company to cooperate with them, ask them make preliminary playground building plans for you and help you draw a playground design drawings including equipment layout, paths, greening and safety areas, and then make a budget based on the design and material costs, and ensure that there are sufficient sources of funds. The general cost is determined by the size of the venue and the type of equipment. The cost of a general community commercial playground ranges from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of US dollars.
3. Laws and regulations
You need to apply for the necessary construction permits and approvals from your local government to ensure compliance with various laws and building codes.
4. Fundraising
You can raise funds through community activities, donations and crowdfunding platforms, or apply for government grants, funding from non-profit organizations or other public welfare funds, or seek sponsorship from local companies, or establish partnerships with other community organizations to share resources and costs.
5. Construction and installation
You need to select qualified and experienced construction contractors and outdoor playground equipment suppliers, and develop a detailed construction plan and schedule, and assign a dedicated project manager to be responsible for progress and quality management. The cost of installation is generally about $150 per person per day, and it usually takes thousands to tens of thousands of dollars to complete the installation of a project. During and after the construction process, conduct multiple safety inspections to ensure that all facilities meet safety standards.
6. Acceptance and maintenance
But after the entire project is completed, you can invite relevant experts and government departments to conduct a final acceptance of the facilities to ensure that there are no safety hazards, and develop a long-term maintenance and inspection plan, including regular inspections, replacement of damaged parts and keeping clean.
7. Promotion
You can hold a community open day or opening ceremony to attract residents to participate in and use the new facilities, and promote the new amusement facilities through community announcements, social media, local newspapers and other channels to increase awareness and participation.
8. User feedback and improvement
Maintainers should regularly collect feedback from community residents and users to understand usage and existing problems, and make necessary adjustments and improvements based on feedback to ensure that the facilities always meet community needs.
