Description
Kid-Friendly World offers a visionary yet practical framework for designing inclusive environments where children and families thrive. Blending global case studies, developmental science, and participatory design, it redefines child-centered design as a catalyst for healthier, more vibrant communities. From public spaces and tourism destinations to hotels, events, and policy, the book provides tools and insights to guide planners, educators, and hospitality leaders. It positions children as co-creators-not just users-of the spaces we share, and shows how family-centered design can attract more visitors, guests, attendees, and residents.
