Kids in the Community

Introduction:

What does a kid need to have a good life? Kids definitely need food, water, clothes, school and a place to live. But what else do they need? I think that kids also need fun and safe places to play and explore. That's why I learned about all of the activities for kids in Vienna!

What community need did I learn about?:

I learned about how a city needs fun and safe places for kids to play and explore. Vienna is a big city with lots of cars and trains. It can be a scary and confusing place for kids. That's why it is so important for city planners to make sure there are parks, museums and activities for kids all over the city.

Why does the community have this need?:

There are probably over 200,000 kids in Vienna! These kids might go to daycare or school. When the kids are at home they can play with adults or other kids. But what if kids could only play at home and at school? What if there were no safe and fun places for kids to be in the city? The communities in Vienna make sure that there are always fun activities for kids and their families. 

Is this need being met? How?:

Yes! No matter where you are in Vienna there is always a park or playground close by. Vienna also has a lot of events for kids and their families. National Day had fun games for kids to play, and kids were allowed to go inside and explore emergency vehicles.
