The Wizard's Hideaway ADA

The magical Wizard's Hideaway has an elevated house and blue roof, it inspires role play. Children are lured to play longer due to the social interaction that the benches and table inside causes. The table on the side of the house can be used as meeting point or a comfortable spot for care givers. The stairs and the slide benefit motor skills such as cross coordination and spatial awareness.

The Spider's Cottage

The Spider's Cottage is sure to invite children to come and play. The challenge that the climbing net presents attracts children. A fun and manageable structure with an easy access to the platform and slides. The cottage also trains the child's sense of balance and spatial awareness, as well as leg and core muscles.

Forest Lake Boat

This little boat offers a role play setting for hours of imaginative play. Children will be lost in their own world as they sail off into the unknown land. The seat in the rear and the rotatable steering wheel add to imagination and the binoculars add to the tactile, rotating elements of the boat. The equipment provided evokes the sense of wonder sparking imagination and dramatic play. Without realising children train their communication, turn-taking and language skills which help children avoid physical conflict.
