With its turntable centre and two benches, it radiates social spinning play, and children and adults cannot get enough of that. The spinning can be started by pushing or pulling the carousel into motion from the outside. Or, when seated, users can use the table as a stable base to turn the carousel from. The rounded shape makes room for users, both seated and standing. Spinning on the carousel trains the vestibular system and the whole sense of balance which is fundamental for walking, running and even being able to sit still and concentrate. When the sense of balance is under-developed, children can't focus and also effects their posture when sitting or standing.
