Playground in Dreams

A playground is a child’s place of adventure. Dreaming of a playground can show a more childish and free part of one’s soul. Not necessarily immature, but the childish qualities may be a good sign, reflecting and reminiscing of one’s younger years. It is a sign of great youth, showing a definite enjoyment of the adventurous and young spirit within a more mature and grown person.

Since a playground is where a child feels happy and relaxed, dreaming of it can be indicative of your desire to be carefree and void of responsibilities. You wish to be able to do things the way you want and at your own pace.

  1. In my dream I went to the residence of a loved one I lost touch with some years back. To my surprise the building was gone, and in its place there was a playground with children.

    I got a sinking feeling in my stomach, a sense that this person was forever gone, and very likely have passed away.

  3. I was outside an arena waiting in a playground in the parking lot with a girl I kind of know, my ex and his best friend that basically tortured me after the breakup but instead my ex kept coming and leaving and we were waiting for him while his best friend flirted with me and I was just kind of walking around waiting waiting waiting and when I woke up I thought we were waiting for me ex but he kept coming and leaving and now i realize it didn’t feel like that. I felt like I was waiting for something or someone else.

  4. I came to this website because I’ve been having nightmares that take place in playgrounds for years, but they’ve been more frequent just this year. The last two I just had were zombie-like dreams, where all seems well until people start to randomly attack and eat each other. People start panicking, but it’s almost like no one exits the scene. They just keep panicking and climbing up the ladders or sliding down the slides to get away. They’re horrible dreams because they feel realistic, and I’m scared to feel the pain of getting hurt by any of the people, especially when I recognize I’m dreaming. I just don’t know why I have so many nightmares about playgrounds.

  5. I dreamt of a playground at night. the ground was black with holes in them and there was a fence around it. I was scared. I realized this was a dream, and tried wake myself up. I then went into two more dream layers after that.

    The next layer was my calling for my parents cause I thought I was awake. 3 shadowed men can towards me and I knew they werent my parents. They wanted to do things to me, inappropriate. I was petrifyed.

    Then I went into the third dream. Where I was leaning against a water some heater or water thing. And I felt terrible, sick or something. And there were people I felt coming near me and I wondered if they would help, or keep walking. They wouldn’t leave so I tell them “im not ok.” speaking was almost impossible so i tried to tell them “I can’t talk easily” then i woke up

  6. I had a dream where I was on a playground with multiple floors but no walls. So you had to climb down to different levels like a ladder. There were children playing on it who weren’t scared but when I played on it I became afraid of heights and the metal on some of the playground equipment would shock me.

  7. I had a dream where a lot of my school was at this beautiful playground by a river. I saw a smoke on the horizon. I warned my teacher and he ignored it. Soon lava came spilling into the area where the playground and we all ran for the river. Once we crossed it, we realized that not everyone made it across.

  11. I dreamt that my down syndrome son was going on a field trip. Waiting on the normal school bust to pick him up a mobile playground on wheels came around the corner to pick him up. A playground on wheels picked him up in the alley I grew up in. Wondering what the dream means.

  12. So, my dream started off with me climbing a tree with some of my family, it seemed pretty rooted and the trunk was huge. But the branches had no leaves and they kept breaking. But we wouldn’t ever fall completely because another branch would keep us from falling. The next part we were playing on a playground and I saw a storm coming so we started taking the play ground and realized we shouldn’t be doing that so we tried to put it back together someone I didn’t recognize tried to help. But, The storm got so bad though that we had to leave. We were running through a softball park to find shelter and a tornado touched down coming toward us. Some of us got split up and I thought I saw some shelter for us to run toward.
    Then I woke up.

  13. I saw a dream in which I am on top of some kind of two story building where 2 railways are passing through each other cross-sectionally.
    While i am passing near by this ccross-sectional junction of these railways on top of roof I saw two trains coming on each rail track.. I imigiately waive hands to give signals to slower train to stop or otherwise collision will be happened.. In mean while a fast train passes through the slower one and break the slower train into two pieces from engine.. and rest of train is its place on rail track..
    To seek help when I see down from roof top its some kind of army play ground where army personal are playing games.. i shout to get attention and to inform the incident but my voice could reach to that people.. when I again shout loudly I wake up

    Further, my old car was also parked on roof top

  19. I always dream that I’m in a playground and when I read this about having fun and childhood it didn’t match my dream at all. I was in a playground and the openings for the slides were so small that I couldn’t get my foot into it. I remember trying to put my foot in the opening and it got stuck. I also recall that the opening was very high up. In the dream I remember running around the playground and seeing this boy’s head on the ground under the playground but I think he was either still talking or still blinking and I was screaming his name but then continued running around the playground.
    Then the dream switched and it was like I was at a meeting with some people I knew. There was that same boy whose head was on the floor….
    I’d seen him yesterday at dance practice in reality and his mother IS the choreographer in reality. I was in a show with him and several other people, and he’s going to be in my quince and my cousin’s quince (it’s like sweet 16 but for Hispanic girls). So it seems that he’s liking me or something because he is always trying to dance with me even though he’s not my partner. Let’s call him “J”.
    There was either him or this other boy that I go to school with. I have a crush on him. Let’s call him “A”. He was sitting on a chair and when I came up to him he hugged me and started to kiss my neck…
    Something happened with the playground again… It was like I died and they all lay me far from the playground on the surface of the tire pieces which was all over the playground. But I was awake, blinking and everything in the dream but they must’ve thought I was really dead.
    Somehow I “woke up” and ‘J’ was smiling when he saw me, happy to see me, and his friend said “Aww there’s your girl I knew she’s tough, I knew she’d come back to ya!”

    And I can’t remember from there…
