Desk
Social-Emotional
fine meeting place and a space creator. Sharing and cooperation from both sides create a social scenario that supports communication and cooperation.
The Play Tower with Slide attracts growing toddlers to physical play again and again. The accessible stairway and the slide make children run up and slide down in loops tirelessly. Apart from being fun, children also train their muscles and foundational motor skills this way. When sliding, children train their sense of balance, which is the fundament for all other motor skills and physical actions. The balcony allows interaction from the outside to the inside and adds a feeling of height which tickles the stomach. On the stair side a clock and faces panel motivates the understanding of time, space and measures as well as emotional expressions. The side desks make great ground level play destinations. They encourage meetings and makes a seat for carers. The desk with conveyor belt of small, rolling spheres provides add sensory input. It also stimulates cross-modal perception, which is important for reading.
