Musca spinner
Physical
balance when standing, sitting and rotating, muscles develop when holding tight.
Social-Emotional
cooperation in getting the spinner to turn.
The Rigel has fantastic play versatility. Tweens and teens will feel attracted by the varied, challenging climb, balance, and spin activities of the Rigel. In the early teenage years, the sense of balance needs training due to the rapid physical growth. The Musca spinner whirls around when children enter and put their full muscle force into pushing and pulling it around. This trains the sense of balance and also fosters an understanding of rotation principles. The Jacob's Ladder is a challenging twisted ladder that only older children can manage. Rigel is perfect for socialising tweens with the rope and seat options in the centre, inviting meetings.

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.
