This slide play tower will inspire children to slide, climb, and come back to play actively again and again. The proportions and activities are scaled to provide optimal play stimulation for preschoolers. The pipe ladder offers a fast way up, training cross-coordination and muscles. Cross-coordination stimulates cross-modal perception, necessary for skills such as reading. Climbing the tower is rewarded with a thrilling ride down the slide, training posture, balance and core muscles when sitting upright going down. When deciding whom to go next, children develop empathy and negotiation skills. The platform provides a place to be together with friends, and the windows encourage children to communicate with friends outside the platform.

Play value can be described very precisely in developmental terms, looking into the human physical, cognitive, social and emotional developmental stages.
