When possible, we incorporate cultural elements from the communities we work with into our playspace designs. Earlier this year, we added murals containing drawings representative of the Hispanic culture to our playground at Uvalde Dual Language Academy. #HispanicHeritageMonth

Green schoolyards have a catalytic effect! Not only can they reduce heat islands, but a study done in Denver showed that green schoolyards can increase academic performance, school attendance, and nearby property values. grist.org/looking-forwar…

Since 2022, KABOOM! & The Powell Foundation have been creating playspaces that spark joy while teaching kids about the environment. Together, we’ve ensured every public elementary school has had a new playground built or replaced, in Huntsville, TX! bit.ly/4eYbq13

Part of creating a sense of belonging in playspaces is integrating cultural identity into the design. The Día de los Muertos themed playground in Brownsville, TX is an example of how we work with the community to tie in cultural elements. #HispanicHeritageMonth
