Booring Playgrounds

"Boring was how the majority of children described their local parks and playgrounds in a 2002 national survey (UK) by the Children's Society and the Children's Play Council. Further more, 45% said that they were not allowed to play with water, 36% not allowed to climb trees, 27% not allowed to play on climbing equipment and 23 % not allowed to ride bikes or use skateboards. "
