What about `max_age=toddler`? (i.e. the oldest you can be is "a
toddler"), likewise `min_age=young_child` for the "older" one? (Is that
the best term?) Yes it's not a numeric age, but it's better than nothing?
You could try to micromap the individual pieces of equipment, which
might allow data consumers to deduce what's what, but I doubt this is
practical.
You can map if equipment can be used by kids with various degrees of
disabilities (`wheelchair`, `sitting_disability`, `walking_disability`
etc), which is just so nice. Please go out of your way to help them.
Obviously, put a `note` on the playgrounds explaining this.
