Ulaanbaatar playgrounds

♦ March 26, 2012 ♦ 3 Comments

I have been fascinated by the diversity, strangeness, quantity and condition of Ulaanbaatar’s playgrounds. There are a lot of them. As a former Certified Playground Safety Inspector (yes, I could have had “CPSI” after my name on business cards) many of the playground are textbook risks. Look for swings made of metal and wood, fall zones covered in metal and wood, and other things that make Americans far inferior when it comes to falling down and not crying.

    The bright colours dont hide the fact that all these brutal metal slides could easily kill a small human should he/she fall. I guess they didnt conquer the world by falling on SAWDUST as children!
