Architecton: Proceedings of Higher Education №1 (77) March, 2022

The article discusses the design of children's playgrounds in Kazakhstan in an open urban space, provides examples and describes the existing children's playgrounds. Play spaces that welcome children of all abilities to interact and play with each other should be the starting point for building a play environment. A rich play area challenges children's social, physical, emotional and intellectual skills and encourages constructive play that invites children to play, experiment and learn.
The work explores the current state of the children's play environments in public places in the cities of Kazakhstan taking into account the needs of children of different age categories and physical abilities and identifies the main criteria for designing a playground that meets modern-day requirements.
