Abstract:

Australia has a long-standing tradition of practical exploration in designing child-friendly cities, particularly in the area of natural playgrounds for children. This paper examines three natural playgrounds for children in Sydney and Melbourne as examples to explore the design strategies that: 1) make full use of natural elements; 2) offer a variety of games that meet children's needs; 3) balance safety with opportunities for risk-taking; 4) involve children in the design process from the beginning.
