We still have grass in Australia Rhet!! bahahaha they hardly use sand here now, gravel is out..too many lawsuits..metal toys/rides are out..lawsuits, grass is SOMETIMES real..water issues..and the surface around all of the new playgrounds now has some sort of rubbery kind of carpet on them. Its all changed mate..LOL and they got rid of the sand because of syringes and broken glass and cats

cheers bullet
