[quote=Anonymous]I have a very simple rule when it comes to appropriate use of playground equipment: if you can use it on your own you are old enough to use it. OP if your child can not safely use a piece of play equipment safely on her own she does not belong on that equipment. A bridge that shakes does not sound age appropriate. Otherwise she'd be able to handle the shaking herself. The slide - if she can get onto it on her own then she's fine and you can ask older kids to wait. If she needs you to pick her up and sit her on top she does not belong on that slide yet. There are age appropriate ways to play for any age. No need to put your child on equipment they are not physically ready to use yet.[/quote]
