“Early childhood teachers and researchers alike have documented the importance of providing opportunities for unstructured play and hands-on experience for children. As a landscape architect and expert in play ground safety, Tony Malkusak has had a wealth of experience in developing play areas for children based on natural resources. In Iowa City, he has designed and built imaginative play spaces for children in public areas and private homes and for child care facilities. We are fortunate to have someone with his knowledge, interests and enthusiasm in our community.”
