Double Tower with Valley Bridge

Banister bars

Physical: coordination is supported when going down, as well as arm and core muscles. Landing strengthens bone density, which is built for life in childhood.

Social-emotional: turn-taking and risk-taking.

Climbing wall

Physical: supports cross coordination and leg, arm and hand strength. Climbing through the holes trains proprioception.

Social-emotional: children develop courage when climbing up high. This positively affects self-confidence.

Climbing net

Physical: children develop cross-body coordination and muscle strength when climbing. The big meshes allow for climbing and crawling through, supporting proprioception and spatial awareness.

Social-emotional: the big meshes allow for more children to sit together and talk.

Curly climber

Physical: coordination and proprioception are supported when placing arms and legs correctly for going down. Sense of balance when rotating. Arm muscles for holding tight.

Social-emotional: empathy stimulated by turn-taking.

Cognitive: logical thinking when placing arms and legs right for rotating downwards.

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.

Inside seat

Social-emotional: meeting, sharing and having a break.

Coconut rope bridge

Physical: the bridge sways gently, training the sense of balance and space when the child balances across. These motor skills in combination are great for learning how to navigate the body in space.

Social-emotional: children swaying together on the rope experience their own and others’ movements. This spurs cooperation and consideration, e.g. when passing others on the rope.
