Borrow Stencils from the DHSS Playground Stencils Library

Playground stencils can be used to paint shapes and designs on playgrounds at child care centers, schools and parks. Painted playgrounds have been shown to increase physical activity in young children. Stencil designs are inviting, fun and are great for sites with limited space or playground equipment.

A variety of stencil designs are available to borrow from the DHSS Playground Stencils Library. A stencil request form must be completed by each facility that wants to borrow stencils. The stencils are available on a first come, first serve basis, and not all the stencils will be available at the same time. The organization requesting the stencils is responsible for picking up and delivering them back to Department of Health and Senior Services in Jefferson City.
