Childhood Obesity vs. Kids' Outdoor Fitness Equipment Custom Playground Equipment recognizes that childhood obesity is quickly becoming a country-wide epidemic. Unfortunately, with this epidemic comes the realization that as the generations progress, our children are spending more time indoors and are experiencing severe lack of motivation to engage in physical fitness activities of any type.
