Articles Published on Designing for All Children

Design for All Institute of India has recently published articles written by several authors and collected by Vicki Stoecklin, our company's Education & Child Development Director. These articles should help early childhood practitioners, designers, community planners, landscape architects and special educators better understand how to create environments that work for children with a wide range of abilities.

Design for All Institute of India has taken on the role of introducing the concept of universal design to India. The articles were contributed to help support the institute's mission and the work of Dr. Sunil Kumar Bhatia. White Hutchinson would like to thank Dr. Bhatia for requesting our participation and to gratefully acknowledge the contribution of several other authors who shared work and ideas across cultures and continents.

All three articles that were submitted have great photos and examples of how to support environments for all children. Vicki's article was titled "Creating Environments and Buildings That Support Children with All Abilities." Another article, written by Ingrid Kanics from the Center for Creative Play,  was titled, "I Can Play -- Creating Universally Accessible Play Environments." The third article was written by authors from Boundless Playgrounds, including Jean Schappett, Dr. Lawrence Bruya and Antonio Malkusak, titled "Surfacing With All Children In Mind." These and other articles can be viewed at the Design for All Institute of India website (www.designforall.in/ ) .
