Mentona Moser

Mentona Moser (1881-1952) was a Swiss social reformer and pioneer in the establishment of public playgrounds. Inspired by her observations of children playing in unsafe urban environments, she advocated for safe, designated play areas that would provide children with opportunities for creative play. Moser's efforts led to the opening of the first playground in Zurich, marking a significant step in the movement for children's rights to play.
