Play spaces to accommodate disabled children / by James H. Melvin. : NH15-876/1980E-PDF

"Most play environments for disabled children are therapeutic and institutional. This report explores the alternatives possible on an integrated play space - a relatively new concept. With integration of the disabled within the community, both abled and disabled children should have access to a stimulating play space. The design must accommodate the disabled child and still be challenging to the able child. A number of design guidelines concerning the selection, space allocation and play opportunities are presented along with preliminary ideas for play space design. Modifications to existing play facilitates to allow disabled and able children to play together, are also discussed"--Abstract, page [8].
