Text of Petition:                     

Not all parents with young children can safely walk from the house to use parks and playgrounds e.g. when having to walk along dangerous roads or in rural areas. The benefits of exercise and play for young children are well established. Consider allowing parents of young children to drive to parks and playgrounds so that they can play and exercise within their bubble and with respect to COVID-19 guidelines.
