The Big Foot playground has the potential of ushering in a whole new wave of eco-friendly play areas for children. Made entirely out of melted down rubber tires, it may not look like your typical playground with swings and slides, but I guarantee that your kids will still have a lot of fun.
Designed by David Barry, the Big Foot playground features various mountains that challenge children in different, imaginative ways. Mysterious and adventurous, I'm sure the whole family would enjoy it.
