The second iteration of the kindergarten area repurposes the area next to the jungle gym as a new sandbox; however this time it plays more with shapes that can be utilized better by the children in day to day activities. The change between grassy seating areas, to woodchip planter areas, and to the sandbox playful areas helps create a diverse environment all in one location. In addition, keeping the shape less defined and more organic allows for children to ride tricycles and run around on the surrounding asphault. Towards the front entrance to the kindergarten, there now stands a green seating area with tables, shading, and grass that the teachers can more easily take their kids to for snack each day.
