Summer is time for outdoor play and learning through play is always important.  One goal I have for the beginning of the school year with my 3-5 year old preschoolers is to create a child friendly and high interactive outdoors play space.  We have a ton of space and only Little Tykes climbers/ slides.

 Here is a great link from Teach Preschool that helps give ideas for the playground.
