The Cottontop Trail provides thrilling, responsive challenges for children. The variety of play activities make them want to come back again and again for more fun. The nets act as a big trim trail and encourage games such as "the ground is made of lava". Lots of responsive, swaying and bouncing nets demand concentrated movement, adjusting for different rhythms of climbing. The nets train agility, balance and coordination skills, the ABC of motor skills, in an immensely fun way. Apart from being great fun, the horizontal net, Swaying Bridge and Shaky Pods allow children to take a break and socialise or cooperate together to move around the structure. This develops important social-emotional skills such as turn-taking, helping and sharing. The bouncy, swaying range of challenging play makes the Cottontop Trail a high retention play event that manages to support children's development through fun play.
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.

The overall framework applied for these factors is the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), which quantifies "environmental information on the life cycle of a product and enables comparisons between products fulfilling the same function" (ISO, 2006). This follows the structure and applies a Life-Cycle Assessment approach to the entire Product stage, from raw material through manufacturing (A1-A3).
