Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book about the Playground Movement explores the social and educational significance of this revolutionary approach to improving public health, increasing educational opportunities, and enhancing civic life in communities across the United States at the turn of the 20th century. The movement originated in Boston in 1886, and was embraced across the country, with thousands of public playgrounds springing up in cities and towns within two decades. The author discusses how this movement revolutionized notions of childhood development by recognizing the importance of play for children's physical, social, and emotional growth. Many of the ideas presented in this book remain highly relevant to contemporary efforts to provide safe, healthy, and supportive environments for children to thrive and learn. By examining the history and impact of the Playground Movement, this book contributes to our understanding of the vital role that play and recreation have in creating strong and vibrant communities.
