The Children’s Museum Playground Exhibit at Port Wonder will be a fully inclusive playground and accessible to all children. This allows visiting children of all ages, abilities, and developmental stages to safely play together. The combined activity zones reflect the needs of all kids while promoting enjoyment and growth while nurturing development. An inclusive playground helps develop sensory and cognitive skills, helps reduce prejudice and supports social integration. Giving a child with a disability the chance to feel included not only benefits the child, but it benefits the greater world around them. 

Our project partners began fundraising efforts in July 2023 with a goal of reaching $800,000 by May 2024! Money raised will fund the playground equipment, padding, canopy shades, benches, and fencing necessary to ensure a safe environment for children to explore and enjoy an outdoor space created just for them.
