Play Value
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.

Specifications
Children can sway mildly or wildly, lie, be seated, or even stand in the Rope Hammock. Children of all abilities will take joy in the responsiveness and social interaction in the hammock. Pushing and pulling the friends from side to side is fun and also builds arm strength. The swaying motion supports important motor skills such as the sense of balance and the sense of space. The rhythmic movements support the understanding of rhythm. In combination, these three skills assist the child's ability to navigate space securely, for instance when judging distances and speed in traffic. The sense of balance is fundamental for all other motor skills and helps the child's motor stability: preventing falls and being able to sit still for longer periods of time.

Quality that lasts
The nets for the hammocks are produced from 16 mm Corocord ropes. The connection between the ropes is manually spliced to avoid any hard surfaces in the surrounding areas. The size of mesh creates a secure structure which doesn't allow users to pass through the net.
The aluminium swages of the net are double conical with rounded ends and are as small as safety allows. The overall net design aims at keeping metal parts within the net to an absolute minimum, both in size and number, to provide the best possible rope climbing experience.
The steel structures are hot-dip galvanised inside and outside with lead free zinc. The galvanisation has excellent corrosion resistance and requires low maintenance.
You can choose between seven rope colours to create a customised solution for your playscape. Colours options range from elegant and expressive black or natural and toned-down hemp colour to attractive and eye-catching signal colours.
