Physical development (physical and motor skill)

Play elements that focus on physical development can assist children to develop and enhance fine and gross motor skills, hand and eye coordination, balance and their sense of movement through space.

  • Swings

    The swings feature two different styles of seating to enable children with diverse needs to experience motion. One swing is arm-powered and the other has a hard base for easy transfer.

  • Flying Fox

    The Flying Fox enables children to experience the rush of free-flying motion in the safety of a modified seat, which includes high back support and a chest harness.

  • Carousel

    The carousel provides children with a feeling of spinning while suspended in the air, all while they're in the safety of harnessed chairs.

  • Climbing Net

    The climbing net tests children's strength, gross motor skills and coordination. The bottom of net meets sand underneath to allow transfer.

  • Hammock

    The playground's chill-out area includes a hammock which enables children to experience a slow-rocking, side-to-side movement.
