This preschool playground safety checklist helps you maintain a secure outdoor play environment specifically designed for children ages 2-5. Nationwide Children’s Hospital reports that over 213,000 kids end up in emergency rooms each year because of playground injuries, with the majority of those injured being between 2 and 9 years old.
You can use this checklist to conduct regular inspections, identify potential hazards before they cause injuries, and document your compliance with CPSC and ASTM safety standards. The format allows you to quickly assess critical safety elements while creating a thorough record that demonstrates your commitment to playground safety and regulatory compliance.
