Preparing Kids' Play Area How Monica Got It Right

?

When you set out to prepare a play area for kids, it is imperative to choose the right set of equipment as well as the supplier. Criteria for judging a supplier are reliability, quality of material used and safety of the equipment.

Margaret was worried. Her five-year old daughter Alice spent most of her time watching cartoon channels and playing video games in their ninth floor apartment. Margaret would not have minded an hour or two on cartoons or video games, but the problem was that Alice was completely disinterested in playing with the kids of her age. Even if a kid called her, she would show no inclination of going out. Margaret knew she would have to find a solution.

Margaret was well aware of the cause as well. Their apartment had no play area where the kids could have recreation. The Resident Welfare Association (RWA) had earmarked a site for creating an outdoor playground a couple of months but nothing had moved further. Margaret decided to take up the matter with the RWA functionaries and push it through. Her efforts bore fruits and the RWA set a timeline of a month to get the playground ready. They also hired Monica Carpenter, a retired sports department official, for assisting them to complete the work.

Monica focused on getting the right set of play equipment which suited kids of 3-7 years. Children of older age group could travel to the larger playground in the vicinity with their parents, but younger kids needed a place to play inside the apartment premises. After doing proper research and consulting various providers, she recommended equipment such as Metal Dome Climber, Play Slide, Merry Go Round, Swings and Spring Riders. A seasoned person when it came to sports, she was well aware that the play equipment for kids must be engaging enough to keep them hooked and, at the same time, they must be safe as well.

Her next task was to zero in on the right provider of the play equipment. She was well aware that getting the right supplier was imperative for getting a class play area. A supplier could be judged by the reliability, quality of material used and safety of the equipment. She never laid undue stress on cost as she held that saving a few extra dollars could come back to haunt you on any other day. In her opinion, the criteria of judging play equipment could not be the cost but the supplier's quest for value. A supplier must be trustworthy and must have an impeccable track record.

After plenty of research and parleys with the executives of various suppliers, Monica decided on an Indiana based provider of play equipment. They were not only providing top quality equipment but nationwide installation services as well. Although installation prices were not included in the retail prices, but they did provide separate estimates for installation. Monica found their equipment as well the cost satisfactory.

The RWA placed their order with the provider on recommendation of Monica. All the equipment arrived on due date on a truck. Packing was perfect ensuring that the equipment did not have even have a scratch during the journey. Detailed assembly instructions and a packing list was included in the shipment. The shipment was accompanied by an installation team as well. They fit all the equipment in a couple of hours.

The playground was ready. All the kids in the apartment had a playful evening that day with their mothers. One of these kids was Alice. She was so hooked to Metal Dome Climber that she just did not leave it for the whole evening. She was screaming, bubbling with delight. And Margaret, she had a broad smile on her face.
