GoKawiilNYC junkyard playground lets kids use real saws and hammers, unsupervised
A New York City playground called 'The Yard' gives children access to real tools — saws, hammers, nails, wheelbarrows — in an unstructured, screen-free environment, according to the Wall Street Journal. Adult 'playworkers' supervise from a distance but largely let kids direct their own activities, and parents sign liability waivers before enrolling their children, with the site carrying its own insurance.
