Fake grass is being used as a safe and durable playing surface for schools across the country, including a very lucky elementary school in San Francisco. San Francisco Chronicle reports that Redding Elementary has replaced its asphalt playground with new artificial grass. The new addition to the school is part of an effort organized by America Scores Bay Area, a nonprofit organization that wants to bring turf soccer fields to more schools in San Francisco. According to the article, every elementary school in San Francisco has asphalt playgrounds.
Replacing asphalt with synthetic grass at Redding Elementary has already proven to be a great investment. According to the article, the field has encouraged more girls to play. Another benefit of installing artificial turf fields in elementary schools is that it encourages physical activity, especially for those children who rather stay indoors and play video games.
