Mississippi River Play Yard
Fireflies Play Environment Inc. and Close Landscape Architecture
Parents and staff of preschoolers sought a play environment based on natural and educational elements. A Mississippi River Bluffs theme evolved from the close proximity of the school to the unique river gorge.
Two bluff islands lined with natural rock out-croppings, increased circulation. An embankment slide, trike track, storage, play house, sandbox, water feature, and pergola with a swing greatly increased the play options. River birch shade the site, as river animal foot prints stroll along the sidewalk.
