- The most common playground injuries are fractures, lacerations, and contusions.
- Most playground deaths are caused by strangulation, followed by falls.
- Children between the ages of 5 and 9 are at the highest risk for these injuries.
- On public playgrounds, climbing equipment was named as the most dangerous toy.
