Play Unites Us All … Even Jelly Roll and Taylor Swift

Sometimes, a playground can find its way into the spotlight more than a decade after being built. That was the case recently when country music star Jelly Roll revealed his surprising link to Taylor Swift in a People Magazine article. The connection? A Little Tikes Commercial playground in Hendersonville, Tennessee, where Jelly Roll used to take his daughter.

The playground was originally funded in part by Swift to help a community devastated by flooding in 2010. At the time, Swift’s donation demonstrated her dedication to supporting families and children in need, creating a safe space for play and healing. Helping the local community was personal for Swift, who attended a Hendersonville area high school.

Many diehard Swifties seek out the play space – as shown on Tik Tok, but for most, the castle-themed playground is simply a destination for local families to come together and play.

For Little Tikes Commercial, the resurgence of this special playground is a reminder of the impact that giving back can have. As a company committed to building innovative, inclusive playgrounds, we know that swings, slides and climbers have the potential to change lives.

Whether it’s rebuilding a playground after a natural disaster or collaborating with local communities to create inclusive play spaces, Little Tikes Commercial is proud to work with those who share our vision for helping children and communities thrive.

We’re honored to have been part of this project and grateful to Jelly Roll for bringing it back into focus.

At Little Tikes Commercial, we know all too well that play never goes out of style. Are you ready for it? Contact us to discuss how we can help you build the playground of your wildest dreams.
