My name is Ruby Luong, I am a second-year undergraduate student at Ryerson University enrolled in the Early Childhood Studies program. I am writing you this letter to advocate the issue of inaccessible playgrounds for children with disabilities in the city of Toronto. This issue is often brushed off from the people that aren’t in relation or affected by this. All children should have the chance to participate in a playground, I believe the park or the playground is a big part of growing up and a childhood. Inaccessible playgrounds for children with disabilities should not be an issue that is talked about within the children’s community. It is an issue that would mainly affect children with disabilities but children who are developing slower than others could be affected by this as well. Children should not grow up to learn that there are limitations in life, a playground is something we all could see as such a small thing, that which a child could see it as something big that could be holding him/her back. This social problem affecting the children with disabilities many barriers and accommodations that should be talked about and I will be writing them to you to hopefully have your help and ability to improve on the future playgrounds.
When people think of a playground, we think of children playing together outdoors. All parents/caregivers have the chance to bring their children to the outdoor playground for their child or children to burn off some energy. Playgrounds are for all children, that is which we want playgrounds to be open for all children, be accessible for all children but in most cases, they aren’t. For children with disabilities, and families that are in relation to disabilities the playground is not always the place for them. “Playgrounds have been said to be a place that is not exclusive to all children, children with disabilities do not have the equal access to playgrounds,” (1, p. 332). It is sad to think that not all children are included in these activities, children with disabilities are children too. Equal rights, this playground issue is a big issue, the inequalities that children with disabilities have when it comes to the opportunities that they could have a part in but are unable to due to the built of the playground. There should be inclusiveness, in a community we want to join together, join together with families and make the children excited to share something simple like the playground. “As young children grow, and they have a disability or not they are able to realize and develop imagination. Children with disabilities could be imagining and asking questions on how the playground could be different and manipulate structures to their own liking,” (2). When children start to grow, and they view the playground through an experience we want the playground to be thought of as a fun memory interacting with other children. As a future early childhood educator, I would not want to see any child with or without a disability to feel as if they are losing out on opportunities. The improvements in inclusivity the city could do to connect children with disabilities to have that integrated experience with children without disabilities would help with further interactions and opportunities, by enhancing the playground to better the accessibility.
