Rope handholds
Physical
provides stability in balancing. Makes possible hanging in arms, training upper body muscles.
Social-Emotional
adds a feeling of security.
The Balance Combination appeals to children with the simple play challenge of balancing. The variety of balance activities is the great attraction here. The steps on the one beam motivate jumping or balancing from one to the next. The solid beam on the next pole has an additional rope support, to cater for those who are less confident. When walking or jumping from pole to pole, children train their proprioception and sense of balance. Balance and proprioception are basic skills required for confidently managing the body in its surroundings. This is important when navigating street traffic safely. Balancing across the Balance Combination with friends also trains turn-taking and negotiation. These are important social-emotional skills fundamental to forming friendships and relating to peers.
