I think that it was a really bad and horrible idea to design the playground with sand. I hate it so much. My child comes home everyday with sand in her hair and in her shoes. Her shoes is extremely filled with sand and because of the sand, her uniform is always dirty. The school needs to find some way of eliminating the sand and put something else.
