Motivating Playgrounds for Tweens

According to the World Health Organization, play is the number one physical activity for children, including tweens. But do tweens get motivated by the same play activities as toddlers? This doctoral thesis presents the science behind where tweens are most active on the playground, the games they play, and why they use playgrounds the way they do.
