Explore Children's Outdoor Play Spaces of Community Areas in High-density Cities in China: Wuhan as an Example

China has witnessed accelerating urbanization in many cities bringing both economic benefits and hardships for citizens. Often children bear the heaviest burden in the high-density cities. The value of outdoor play has been emphasized in many research fields with its physical, psychological and social benefits for children's development. However, by a range of measures, there is growing evidence that children in China spend less time enjoying outdoor play currently. This study research aims to explore the children's experience of outdoor play in their community areas by taking Wuhan as an example. Questionnaires designed for both children and their parents had been collected and analyzed to find out the relationship between play value and outdoor play spaces.
