Play has well-established physical and mental benefits for people of all ages. Urban spaces, such as parks, provide important public arenas in which to play. But to what extent do planners or planning scholarship focus on facilitating play? Our systematic literature review of 3,800 articles in nineteen academic planning journals returned 126 articles related to play. We found that the planning for play literature is an emerging discourse overwhelmingly focused on children and the physical design of urban spaces in predominantly English-speaking nations. The study identifies gaps in the planning for play literature and outlines recommendations for future research.
玩耍对各年龄段的人都有公认的身心益处。城市空间，如公园，为人们提供了重要的公共玩耍场所。但规划者或规划学术研究在多大程度上关注促进玩耍呢？我们对19种学术规划期刊上的3800篇文章进行的系统文献综述，找出了126篇与玩耍相关的文章。我们发现，关于玩耍规划的文献是一个新兴的论述，主要集中在以英语为母语国家的儿童以及城市空间的物理设计上。该研究指出了玩耍规划文献中的空白，并概述了对未来研究的建议。
