Here comes the ultimate play experience for preschoolers! The Manhattan Mega Deck delivers maximum play value with its maze of play activities, supporting children's development cognitively, socially, and of course physically. The desk, mailbox, and flower panel are nice frames for dramatic play, supporting storytelling and language skills. The panel with faces supports emotional development, whereas the geometric shapes and numbers support educational learning and encourage children to learn about the world around them. Muscle strength is trained when climbing up the bars or the curly climber. Crawling through the tunnel supports cross-coordination, while jumping down the balance beam is important in terms of building strong bones. Sliding and swaying in the hammock stimulate balance.
Play value is the value gained from play, the value that makes the child “want” or developmentally “need” to undertake the activity and thus gives the play item holding power. Play value can be described very precisely in developmental terms, looking into the human physical, cognitive, social and emotional developmental stages.
sliding develops spatial awareness and a sense of balance. Furthermore, the core muscles are trained when sitting upright going down.
invites socializing, supports parent-child and peer-to-peer play.
young children develop their understanding of space, speed and distances when sliding down quickly.
coordination and sense of balance when swaying.
meeting, pushing friends gently back and forth, turn-taking.
for toddlers cause and effect understanding.
spurs group play and conversations with its dual-sidedness.
suggests a theme and supports dramatic play, which stimulates language and communication skills.
coordination and proprioception are supported when placing arms and legs correctly for going down. Sense of balance when rotating. Arm muscles for holding tight.
empathy stimulated by turn-taking.
logical thinking when placing arms and legs right for rotating downward.
encourages communication and social interaction.
evokes curiosity and stimulates an understanding of cause and effect and object permanence: objects and people still exist when out of sight.
the children crawl through the tunnel, developing motor skills such as cross-body coordination and proprioception.
turn-taking when passing each other.
supports cross coordination and leg, arm and hand strength.
the incline makes climbing feel safer, especially for younger children.
communication, listening, sharing when exploring panel with friends.
stimulate children's language skills and knowledge of numbers and geometric shapes. The passing of materials through funnels supports the children's logical thinking and for younger children the understanding of object permanence: that materials don't vanish, but run through at the other end.
trains the sense of balance, fundamental for all other motor skills that make it possible to navigate the world confidently and securely.
turn-taking skills and negotiation when crossing each other on the beam. Room for a seated rest and exchange.
children can gather and store materials, cooperate and take a break together.
sand can be shifted through the sieve, for understanding of cause and effect and object permanence.

All steel components are made of high quality materials. The posts have an alloy with improved tensile and yield strength according to the NYCP material specification. The painted aluminum post caps are riveted to the top of the post.
All panels and one-piece welded steel grids are made of low carbon steel and corrosion treated by hot dip galvanization or metallization with a minimum thickness according to NYCP material specification.
All decks are made of perforated low carbon steel plates supported by aluminum profiles with no unsupported area larger than four square feet. After metallization the decks are coated with a polyurea non-slip surface which provides extremely good wear and tear resistance.
The stainless steel activities are made of high quality stainless steel. The steel is glass blasted after manufacturing to ensure a smooth gliding surface.
Climbing Grips are a KOMPAN customized design, based on professionally designed climbing grips for optimal play value. The base material is polyester.

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 enables 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).
