The playground by the pool is very small and suitable for a small number of children, yet it is overcrowded gives its 3m x 4m size. In comparison, maple 3 has two massive (very well equipped) playground and is a smaller community.

The balance beam, sand area and dangerous Boulder climbing areas are incredibly cheap, lack imagination and as such, no kids play with these areas.

Children want swings, slides, roundabouts and real imaginative climbing frames, just like in maple 3.

This must be addressed for maple 1, as we were promised play areas for our children, yet all we got were eyesores, that no child enjoys.

PS, even the monkey bars for adults (next to volley ball court), cannot be reached by anyone under 6 foot. What a waste.

Reaching this point has been exhausting but seeing so many of you echo my frustrations gives me the energy to keep pushing forward. It is clear that we are tired of being ignored while our neighbors in other communities get the facilities they were promised. I am staying focused on the end goal even though the path ahead remains difficult.

What is it with the rocks everywhere? There is so much wasted space in all 'green' patches. We need them to be FLAT and covered with grass as a minimum so not only does it look good but it's safe for kids. Right now, it's just plain dangerous.

We absolutely require kids play facilities in Maple 2 as well. There isn’t a good equipped area other than a small slide next to the pool. My kid has to go about 1km far to Maple 3 to play however in the summer this is going to be difficult. There is ample space available to make a good play area in Maple 2 within the existing parks. It’s a small investment for Emaar but will have a greater impact for kids wellbeing in the community.

We need playgrounds like in maple 3. Not the terrible boulders or planks of wood. Most kids are 6-14, so the baby playground near the pool is not suitable.

Very disappointing. Such a tiny space and so many young children need a space to play.

Make maple 1 similar to the rest of DHE. Our park is the smallest and not enough small play areas around the houses like the rest
