Why are playground mats designed to let water through? — playground mats and their design
Playground mats are specifically designed to breathe and let water flow freely, but why? As a material used throughout South Africa, schools and playgrounds of all types need drainage and dry surfaces to minimise accidents or mishaps. When kids are playing and having fun, the last thing you need is to add to the mix is slipping and falling. Especially at schools or daycare when you kids are someone else’s responsibility.
