The outdoor activity space for preschool children was inspected and previously measured a total of 7,611.73 square feet which is sufficient to accommodate the facility capacity of 72 children. There was no change in the square footage to the remodeled play area. Only the physical layout of objects and play equipment was changed. Play surface was either repainted, re-striped or covered with a different ground medium to sit, play and or absorb falls. In lieu of play structures the center opted for a "lose parts" theory style of play area. LPA observed that the play equipment is age appropriate for children ages 2- 5 years. The outdoor space is fenced. The fencing is chain link and is at least four feet high. Shade is provided via sail canopies and a covered pergola. The playground is free of high climbing equipment but has wood chips and artificial grass cushioning to absorb falls. Playground equipment is in safe condition, free of sharp, loose and pointed parts. There is a drinking station in the playground area that is shut off but staff provide filtered drinking water from a portable Brita filtered container. LPA observed there are no hazardous items accessible to children. There are no bodies of water or weapons on the property. LPA informed Facility Representative that staff are required to maintain direct visual supervision of the children at all times during indoor and outdoor activities. Fire clearance was granted on 8/08/2020.
