Avery ★★★★★

The scoring categories are laid out so clearly that I finally feel confident assessing outdoor play spaces, and the user guide makes it a breeze to follow even on my own. It’s already reshaping how I plan each outdoor session, and the layout helps me spot weaknesses I’d completely missed before.

Penelope ★★★★★

I’m using it as a self-study tool before our playground redesign, and the user guide plus the scale itself give me a clear checklist I can actually apply. The layout makes it easy to score each area without getting lost in jargon.

Joshua ★★★★☆

Really helpful for evaluating our playground setup, though the self-study guide could use a few more practical examples. The scoring system is clear and easy to follow once you get the hang of it.
