Children can sway mildly or wildly, lie, be seated or even stand in the Rope Hammock. Children of all abilities will take joy in the responsiveness and social interaction in the hammock. Pushing and pulling the friends from side to side is fun and also builds arm strength. The swaying motion supports important motor skills such as the sense of balance and the sense of space. The rhythmic movements support the understanding of rhythm. In combination, these three skills assist the child's ability to navigate space securely, for instance when judging distances and speed in traffic. The sense of balance is fundamental for all other motor skills and helps the child's motor stability: preventing falls and being able to sit still for longer periods of time.

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.
swaying back and forth trains the sense of balance and spatial awareness, both important for judging distances and navigating space confidently.

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).
