Playgrounds:

Each year, more than 200,000 children are taken to hospital emergency rooms due to playground-related injuries. Most injuries occur when a child falls onto the playground surface.

Check with your child's school to make sure there is at least 9 inches of safe, shock-absorbing surface material, consisting of wood chips, mulch, sand, pea gravel, or mats made of safety-tested rubber or fiber material. Make sure there is no exposed hardware to catch clothing and no free-hanging ropes attached to the equipment.

Soccer Goals:

Movable soccer goals can fall over and kill or injure children who climb on them or hang from the crossbar. Since 1979, CPSC has reports of at least 28 deaths associated with soccer goals.

Make sure soccer goals are securely anchored when in use, and never allow children to climb on the soccer net or goal framework. When not in use, anchor goals or chain them to a nearby fence post or sturdy framework.
