For kindergarten children, there is a daily need to play and move on the track, so it is crucial to choose a safe, environmentally friendly, and durable running track material. This article will provide an in-depth look at the selection of kindergarten track materials** to help parents and educators better create a healthy and safe environment for their children to grow up.
1. Traditional cement runway.
Cement runway is a traditional kindergarten runway material, which has the advantages of durability, affordability and low maintenance cost. However, the protective performance of cement runway for children is relatively poor, and it is easy to cause accidental injuries such as falls. In addition, the texture of the cement track is relatively hard, which is not conducive to the development of children's bones and joints. Therefore, cement runway is not an ideal kindergarten runway material.
2. Rubber runway.
Rubber tracks are softer than concrete tracks and can better protect children's safety. At the same time, the elasticity of the rubber track can reduce the impact of children in sports and reduce sports injuries. In addition, the rubber runway is easy to clean and maintain, keeping it clean and hygienic. However, rubber runways are relatively high and prone to ageing, requiring regular replacement.
3. Plastic runway.
Plastic runway is a new type of kindergarten runway material, which combines the advantages of cement runway and rubber runway. The plastic track has high elasticity and shock absorption performance, which can effectively reduce sports injuries and improve children's sports safety. At the same time, the soft texture of the plastic track can reduce the impact on children's joints and bones. In addition, the plastic runway is easy to clean and maintain, and can maintain a long service life. Compared with rubber runways, plastic runways are more affordable and suitable for large-scale kindergarten paving.
4. Environmentally-friendly runway materials.
With the improvement of environmental awareness, more and more parents and educators have begun to pay attention to the environmental performance of kindergarten track materials. The environmentally friendly runway material is non-toxic, odorless and non-polluting, and will not affect the health of children. At the same time, environmentally friendly runway materials can also effectively reduce noise pollution and light pollution, which is conducive to the healthy growth of children. However, environmentally friendly runway materials are relatively high in quality and have a relatively short service life, which needs to be replaced regularly.
To sum up, when choosing kindergarten track materials, safety, environmental protection, durability, maintenance costs and economy should be comprehensively considered. Among the various types of runway materials, plastic runway has high cost performance and safety, and is an ideal kindergarten runway material at present. Of course, when choosing, it is also necessary to consider the actual situation, such as the budget of the kindergarten, the size and layout of the site, and other factors. In addition, in order to ensure the safety and health of children, there are also the following points to be aware of:
1.Purchase regular brand kindergarten runway materials to ensure that the quality is qualified;
2.During construction, it is necessary to pay attention to laying and acceptance in strict accordance with the standards;
3.Regularly inspect and maintain the kindergarten track to ensure its normal use;
4.Strengthen children's safety education and management to avoid unsafe behaviors on the runway;
5.For the traditional cement runway that has been laid, its safety can be improved by increasing the buffer zone and strengthening protective measures.
