As a child it was definitely a fun day when you knew you’d be going to the playground.   But back when I was just a little wee kid it was the monkey bars and sandbox that really caught my attention.  Getting to dig and climb and stuff like that were my highlights of the day.

Today?   Today there are these elaborate designs and crazy obstacles kids have to go through in a given jungle gym.  And while it’s cool to have more stimuli for our youth, sometimes the designs can get a little out of hand.  Actually to the point of being more scary than cool.
