WOW! The Scooter Carousel makes children squeal with joy: It rotates, tickles the stomach and is spacious enough for a few friends, too. The social appeal for children is evident: you can be active, and close together. This trains empathy, cooperation and turn-taking skills. The physical play and training in spinning is the main fun factor. The rotation point is at the center allowing the children to adjust the spinning speed by pushing or pulling themselves into motion. This trains the logical thinking: speeding up by leaning into the center or slowing down by leaning out from it. The rotation trains the sense of balance which is fundamental for all other skills. A well-trained sense of balance helps children to navigate the world securely, e.g. preventing falls when playing actively. The pushing and running help develop children's arm and leg muscles and cardio, while jumping on and off the Scooter Carousel builds bone density.

Play value is the value gained from play, the value that makes the child 'want' or developmentally 'need' to undertake the activity and thus gives the play item holding power. Play value can be described very precisely in developmental terms, looking into the human physical, cognitive, social and emotional developmental stages.
the sense of balance and the coordination are supported when spinning. This effects the ability to sit still for longer periods. Muscles are developed when pushing or pulling friends.
cooperation, helping others, turn-taking.
logical thinking when speeding up or slowing down the spin by either curling up or stretching.
the possibility to hold onto more areas of the handhold ensures a good grip, necessary for spinning intensely. This trains the hand and arm muscles.

The overall framework applied for these factors is the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), which quantifies "environmental information on the life cycle of a product and enables comparisons between products fulfilling the same function" (ISO, 2006). This follows the structure and applies a Life-Cycle Assessment approach to the entire Product stage, from raw material through manufacturing (A1-A3).
