The whimsical shapes and colours of the Blazer evoke children's curiosity: they want to try it out. The vibrant colours are consciously chosen to support beginning rules understanding of the 3+year olds: they can choose their colour. The springs make it possible rocking individually or in uneven numbers, too. The platform in the middle supports lying and standing. The platform can be used to start games or as a meeting point. Rocking on the Blazer, especially when standing on the middle platform, trains the child's sense of space and balance. These are crucial as a basis of navigating the world securely. Good mastery of space and balance is the basis of for instance being able to sit still. When the sense of balance is not developed, children cannot focus on anything else. So the sense of balance needs to be automatised in the early years. The Blazer is a fun, playful way to do that.
