Tunnel
Physical
the children crawl through the tunnel, developing motor skills such as cross-body coordination and proprioception.
Social-Emotional
turn-taking when passing each other.
The Four Tower with Two Bridges offers a wealth of diverse climbing, crawling, and sliding experiences. The diversity in play experiences makes children want to come back again and again. The different bridges use their muscles and motor skills to stimulate play events: the step bridge offers graded access, each platform offering a point for a break or a meeting. Children can slide or crawl through the tunnel, both great activities for cross-body coordination. This trains the cooperation between the left and right side of the brain which is necessary for reading skills. The slide stimulates spatial awareness which is needed for navigating space, e.g. in traffic, securely. The inclined bridge with skid preventive floor details supports less physically confident users. This is the obvious play activity for children with physical disabilities, with a perfect distance of access point on the ground level to the egress point.

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).
