ALWAYS DREAM PARK
The Always Dream Park exemplifies MIG's Play For All guidelines, which are based on the following principles: quality play environments are more than just pieces of play equipment—rather, they are exciting and unique places that reflect the history, culture and natural settings of each community; and all children's environments can and should be designed to accommodate and engage children of all ages and abilities. Play is a child’s way of learning. It is an intricate, intimate process that helps children develop and become socially comfortable. Play is learning in its most experimental sense, but it can only be as rich as the social and physical environment where it happens.
