Should seesaws have footrests?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only adjustable ones

  4. If padded

The correct answer is: No

Seesaws should not have footrests for safety reasons. Having footrests can cause a child's feet to get stuck or tangled, resulting in potential injury. It is also important to note that adjustable footrests can also pose a safety risk as they can become loose or unstable over time. Padded footrests may seem like a good idea, but they can also contribute to an unsafe environment as they can compress and affect the balance of the seesaw. Overall, it is best for seesaws to not have footrests at all to ensure the safety of those using them.
