PeacefuL Playground is at Garden Grove
Peaceful Playground is a playground system that is designed to put an end to most playground conflicts. Peaceful Playground teaches students important life skills using these six key principles:
- Teaching students a consistent universal set of rules so that there are fewer disagreements
- Teaching new games to all students so there are more choices. (Check out Four Corners!)
- Teaching all students skills to solve conflicts (walk/talk/rock, paper, scissors)
- Providing adequate equipment (new equipment has been purchased for each grade level)
- Providing universal consistent expectations and positive reinforcement for good sportsmanship
- Marking the playground with new age appropriate games
