Hi all! I need your help, input, suggestions. Adison is 5 and has low vision. She attends a parachoial school for kindergarten. There is no playground/equipment. The kids play outside in the parking lot. Everyday Adison has gotten hurt and ended up in the nurse's office...skinned knees, elbows, bumped head etc.  She has gotten hurt even when I've gone in to help with lunch duty.  We thought about asking the school to paint an area where she must remain, and other peers can join her. I don't want to restrict or limit her, but I'm concerned about safety. I'm worried the alternative would be 'sit here and play with chalk'.

Thanks!
Stacy
