The Robinson Playground offers an open and lively space for leisure activities, encounters, and participation for children, parents, and neighborhood residents three to four days a week. Children find opportunities here that are often not possible in their own homes: they can paint on a large scale, implement and build their own ideas in the workshop, physically let off steam, and actively co-design and reshape the area. In the spirit of open child and youth work, the Robinson Playground promotes self-determination, participation, and social skills. At the same time, the Robinson Playground sees itself as a socio-cultural meeting place, with a lot of commitment from the neighborhood. For example, volunteers run the Robi Café and provide advice in the writing room.
