Both, the Kinder and play structure yards get quite a bot of sun. Please be sure to lather your child with sunscreen before dropping them off at school. Please take some time to show them how to apply it, explaining a little goes a long way. Sunhats and water bottles are a must. Also a friendly reminder, no open-toed sandals, flip-flops or crocs. Crocs and flip flops slip off as they are running and toes like to escape the straps of sandals and get hurt. Closed-toe sandals are fine. Thanks!
