Environmental Playground Project

The infant toddler playground at Lakewood Preschool needed refurbishments. Make an Impact Foundation provided support by installing a new environmental playground. The environmental playground contains lamb’s ear, rosemary, blueberry and butterfly bushes. It has a working creek bed that trickles like a brook located in the mountains. The children can bring toy trucks outside and have truck races on smooth pebbles in the truck pit. When they run out on to the playground and step on the colored steppingstones, they remember that their little hands made parts of the sidewalk. Through a partnership with MAIF, the children can now learn how to care for our environment and experience nature in an urban setting at Lakewood Preschool.
