The answer to this week's trivia is 🥁… B & A! The playground movement was created to give children safe, supervised play areas because they were playing in the streets, alleyways, and other public spaces. It was super dangerous. Reformers also believed that redirecting children's energy to safer play would keep them from engaging in dangerous behaviors like gang activity and petty crime. The more you know! Let’s keep advocating for free, inclusive, and safe play for all!
