The Argo combines the best of social and physical play challenges. The combination of wobbly tube, stable seat and spaciousness attracts older children again and again. Children can sit, lie or stand on the Argo, training balance and coordination as it wobbles from side to side. When children stand or sit and rock from the Argo, they train their balance skills. In the tween and teenage years this is important, as the sense of balance is particularly challenged due to growth spurts. The sense of balance is the foundation of all other motor skills. It is important for managing the world and physically interacting with friends. This interaction grows in importance during the tween and teen period. The versatile Argo supports the urge to hang out together and have fun with physical challenges. It encourages active use of social-emotional skills.
