Environmental design students at CU-Boulder are taking their education out of the classroom and into the community to design and build a neighborhood playground.
The project involves building a play area for an affordable housing community in Lakewood, babyÖ±²¥app, whose current playground doesn’t adequately serve the 67 children who make up more than 50 percent of the population in that community.Ìý
Along the way, students get hands-on building experience and learn communication skills. And, they’re learning that the youngsters have definite opinions about the equipment that should go in their playground.
