The nature exploration area, created by re-purposing logs and other natural materials, offers opportunities for unstructured play and discovery. San Francisco Children and Nature, a collaborative that increases children's access to nature, provided design and construction oversight of the exploration area.
The playground's renovation is part of the Let'sPlaySF! campaign, a partnership between the city's Department of Recreation and Parks and the San Francisco Parks Alliance to transform the city's 13 most time-worn playgrounds into dynamic hubs for creativity and family life.
