Warning: On Hot Days, Playground Equipment Can Get, Um, Hot

July 21, 2008
Don't know how we all survived monkey bars over concrete surfaces. Let alone, to use a timely example, sizzlin' metal slides on hot summer days.

If only we'd had SIGNS warning about hot surfaces like this NYC mom wants because her child was playing barefooted on a rubber mat on a hot day. (His caregiver had removed the shoes he was wearing in a sprinkler to "rinse them off.")

let's accept responsibity people!
