Hey, I fell off the monkey bars when I was 7 and did involuntary splits, which tore the ligaments in my inner thighs. I couldn't walk for 2 days! A teacher had to pick me up from the ground.
Thank goodness our monkey bars were on a sand playground, with woodchips under them.
haha my playground was sand/natural grass and dirt the new ones I've seen are some kind of rubber mulch. BOING!! Kids go bouncing right back up from falls.
None of the playgrounds near me have a merry-go-round because they're too dangerous. Man I remember some good times puking off the side of that thing. A shame that kids wont get to have that experience today.
really, today's kids are so soft, it isn't funny.
No big tall slides, no swings, no merry go rounds....no fun.
