Problem

Too many kids are missing out on important childhood experiences. Childhood experiences that can help kids grow up healthy, happy and successful. An experience chock full of creativity, physical activity, friendship and adventure. The experience is play. Play is crucial to the well-being of children, and it affects the level of quality of life they will enjoy. Yet, unstructured play is on the decline and so are the benefits that go with it.

The Gift

Your gift will provide one whirlwind climber for a playground. Creative minds and active bodies can have loads of fun getting from here to up there and back down again. Children learn hand over hand and foot over foot climbing skills.

At KaBOOM!, we believe that kids who play are less likely to be obese and develop obesity-related health problems. They also develop the cognitive skills that are positively linked to learning and academic performance. And they also learn confidence and the social skills that help them become happy, well-adjusted adults.
