To suggest practical findings, I focus on projects that transform streets into places where children can play, interact, and socialize in the Twin Cities, Minnesota. Indeed, collaborative approaches involving residents, urban planners, and arts and cultural organizations can create sustainable and inclusive urban play environments that support the well-being, creativity, and development of children.enChild-Friendly CitiesPlayPlaygroundsBlock PartiesUrban Play EnvironmentsChildren’s developmentArts and Cultural OrganizationsThesis or Dissertation
