Tower Slide 1.8m high

Platform

Social-emotional: the platform allows for more children to be together and share. Important life skills like courage, self-confidence, consideration and turn-taking are built.

Climbing net

Physical: the inclined net supports the upward climbing movement of the body. The net supports cross-body coordination, which impacts coordination of the right and left part of brain, fundamental for other skills such as the ability to read. The asymmetry of the net challenges the children’s climbing.

Ladder with rope

Physical: cross coordination and eye-hand coordination are supported when children climb the ladder. Leg and core muscles are used intensely. Upper body muscles are developed when children pull themselves upwards in the rope.

Social-emotional: learning about turn taking and cooperation.

Slide

Physical: sliding develops spatial awareness and a sense of balance. Furthermore, the core muscles are trained when sitting upright going down.

Social-emotional: empathy stimulated by turn-taking.

Cognitive: young children develop their understanding of space, speed and distances when sliding down quickly.
