i hate these modern all-plastic playgrounds for kids... safety blah blah blah, they're ugly
i know that children crave steel and iron
If you ever find yourself in Carbondale, Illinois, there is an entire playground that is D&D themed, complete with giant wooden castle, made entirely by a grieving father for his son Jeremy who died and loved D&D.
The entire park has different areas of different sculptures hidden in the trees, on the ground of wizards and dragons and other creatures and monsters. Thereβs tables and benches and spaces to actually play D&D in the park. The castle itself is like a giant jungle gym (thereβs even a dungeon/prison in there lol).
I wouldβve loved a park like this growing up.
