"Playset Installers Saved My Marriage!"

"Playset Installers Saved My Marriage!" - Actual Customer Quote

I was floored when a customer came into our office and loudly exclaimed, "Your playset installers saved my marriage!".  With such a passionate opening message, I didn't know what to say other than, "you're welcome...?"  After we laughed a bit, the customer went on to explain how they thought they could install one of our larger playgrounds on their own, but quickly got overwhelmed.

Backyard Playsets Provide Necessary Playtime

Posted by Mathew Heath Van Horn on Aug 3, 2015 5:34:49 PM

The American Academy of Pediatrics reports the children need play time. Specifically, “Play allows children to use their creativity while developing their imagination, dexterity, and physical, cognitive, and emotional strength.” Playtime improves social skills such as “learning how to work in groups, to share, to negotiate, to resolve conflicts, and to learn self-advocacy skills.” Karin Bilich from Parents Magazine warns that parents should not forget the importance of playtime; it is a cherished part of childhood and is necessary for a child’s development.

Backyard Playgrounds Create Backyard Adventure

Posted by Mathew Heath Van Horn on Jul 19, 2015 5:13:00 PM

     I once served both as a military officer and as single parent of a wonderful little girl.  Not only was I trying to figure out how best to rear a little girl, but I was also trying to develop skills in a demanding profession.  Spending 30-60 minutes at the park play sets involved the components of a major military exercise.  I had to evaluate the location, my work schedule, weather conditions, and drive time, just to find the right spot to spend quality time.  Heading to the park involved loading pull-ups, spare clothes, blankets, water, snacks, toys, games, hats, chairs, books, and a first aid kit.  To top it all off, my first trip to the park solicited a mother’s comment to me, “Oh, it is sooo cute that you let your daughter pick out her own clothes!”  To which I replied, “No. I didn’t.” which was answered with a collective, “ohhhhh dear” from all the moms.  This incident led to a near daily anxiety about how I was screwing up my daughter’s entire life because I could not match clothes properly.
