2. On the playground there were 2 tricycles that each had a foot pedal missing.
3. On the playground, the plastic play structure had a cracked area where a toy steering wheel once was. The cracked area was jagged to-the-touch and posed a pinch hazard.Plan of Correction: The following corrective action was provided by the director during the exit interview:
