Kaboom! Ready, Set, Play!!!
Less than half of American children have a playground within walking distance of their homes, and 61% of Americans say simple lack of access is a barrier to their children frequenting a playground. Did you know playtime is essential to child's well-being? Play promotes learning, physical fitness, social development, and creativity according to experts.
Darell Hammond and Dawn Hutchison started KaBoom! with the vision of a play space within walking distance of every child in America. The organization has built close to 2,000 playgrounds promoting playtime for 3.5 million children. The video spotlights just one of KaBoom!'s many endeavors.
