Play areas of childcare facility capable of stimulating the interests of children is extremely important. However, Childcare facility play areasin Korea are often placed in ‘leftover’ spaces due to institutional inadequacies. As a result, unlike the diverse play areas found in othercountries, play areas in Korea have a standard appearance. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the specific causes of the physicaldifferences in the childcare facility play areas of Korea and other countries. This study compared regulations, handbooks and guidelines andexamined case studies of childcare facility play areas outside of Korea. Five institutional-level differences related to play areas betweencountries were identified as a result of this analysis. Suggestions for improvement at the institutional-level were proposed to each of theidentified categories. This study focuses on the play areas of childcare facility and suggests directions for the improvement of play areas thatare both institutionally and physically realistic.

본 연구에서는 국내외 어린이집 놀이공간 관련 법규, 지침 및 가이드라인을 비교하고 국외 사례를 분석하였다. 그 결과 국내외 어린이집 놀이공간과 관련된 제도적 차이점 5가지를 도출하였다. 각각의 항목에 대하여 제도적으로는 개선되어야 하는 방향을 제시하고, 계획적으로는 국외사례를 통해 국내의 어린이집에 적용가능한 물리적 개선 방법을 제시하였다. 어린이집의 놀이공간에 관심을 가지고 제도적, 물리적으로 현실에서 실현가능한 범주내에서 놀이공간을 개선할 수 있는 방향을 제시했다는 데에 연구의 의의가 있다.
