Had an interesting conversation at lunch the other day about whether or not playgrounds were sexist…

Some folks said that while the boys will be all over the playspace, the girls often times huddle under a slide or off to the side and talk, or use their imagination to play different sorts of games on the playground, not necessarily climbing and sliding on the equipment. Does this mean most playgrounds are not girl-friendly? Is there such a thing?

I see some truth in this, but also remember that some of the best at play, dodgeball, swings etc. at my elementary school were the ladies.

Would love to hear what you think –
