Playworks brings out the best in every kid, through play.
We help kids to stay active and build valuable skills through play. Partnering with teachers, principals, and parents, we make sure kids have the opportunity to contribute on the playground, in the classroom, and in our community. Learn more about our impact.
We LOVE Playworks because it makes recess safe and super fun for our students. With the addition of Playworks, teachers have reported that — after recess — their students are calmer, more academically engaged, and seem more ready and willing to learn as compared to previous years… In its inaugural year, Playworks has already had a tremendous, significant, major and positive impact on our school.
