Playscapes are an essential part of the Douglas County Libraries’ approach to early literacy, using imaginative play to spark children’s cognitive, physical, social, and emotional learning. Process Curiosity helped fulfill this desire with the design of the playscape. We worked closely with the board and key personnel to create an attractive and authentic ranch design for the area. We designed an abstract yet modern barn structure with different interactive experiences for the user.
Process Curiosity utilized different materials to create a unique playscape that kids of all ages will enjoy. The space is filled with HDPE-shaped animals and farm equipment. This allows soft surfaces that kids can climb on as they move through the room. There are areas to play dress up with a scarecrow or through rings around bull horns. We have a functional conveyor belt system that moves hay from outside the barn to within it. Children can play on the tractor and read books with their parents and caretakers or sit in the reading silo for a more private reading. There is so much to do in such a small space.
