CityKin said...: Yes, remove all danger. Kids should be raised in rubber rooms.; 29/6/09 10:02 AM
N_O_R_T_O_N said...: Yes indeed. Rubber rooms WITHOUT head-sized peeping holes.; 29/6/09 5:02 PM
DP said...: FWIW, I think they have that same thing in the 'little kid' portion of the reconstructed playground at Kilgour ES. So maybe you'll start seeing them around here as well.

Random playground 'safety' question: do kids ever get impaled when they fall by those woodchip things that playgrounds use now?; 29/6/09 8:24 PM
