Curved slide
Physical
sliding develops spatial awareness and a sense of balance. Furthermore, the core muscles are trained when sitting upright going down.
Social-Emotional
empathy stimulated by turn-taking.
The curved embankment slide motivates fun for all children and those childish at heart. Due to the embankment run loop, children will run up and slide down again and again. Sliding on the embankment slide is a great fun experience as friends can run up or down next to the sliding child. There is room for many children and for different ages and abilities to play together. The embankment hill is a great place for rolling or running too. When children slide they train their core muscles, sitting upright while sliding down. This stimulates their trunk stability, important for avoiding back and neck pains – a growing problem in children due to sedentary lifestyles. Running uphill or downhill they can train their balance and coordination as well as their muscle strength. They can train risk taking in holding back or letting go downhill.
Photos are for conceptual purpose only. Deviations can occur.
Play value is the value gained from play, the value that makes the child “want” or developmentally “need” to undertake the activity and because of this children will want to return to the item over and over again. Play value can be described very precisely in developmental terms, looking into the human physical, cognitive, social and emotional developmental stages.

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 enable 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).
