I found this blogger on Blotanical who writes about natural design of playgounds. I wrote about the green spirituality of playgrounds in 1994 for Sojourners. I found the article on line and include this clip:

Certain physical settings trigger a feeling of one's smallness in the cathedral of otherness. Sometimes unnerving, mostly deeply rewarding, this experience is common in nature. What is it about creation that moves the soul in two directions at once: on a dead-eye trajectory toward God and into the quiet eddies of inner space? Many people whose self-described spiritual commitments are not with conventional religion or institutions report their encounters with nature in expressly spiritual terms--commune, unity, creative, divine, healing, restorative.
