Social-Emotional
gathering, cooperating or taking a break from play - all train social skills.
A great place to chill! The Meeting Point adds an important option to the playground. The design appeals to older children and is based on research insights: when creating a meeting point, for instance for teenagers, it is important to make it relatively transparent, while keeping a feeling of a safe haven too. This is why the Meeting Point with Bench features openings in its back support and sides: To make sure that people seated can see what or who is approaching. The open design also supports the many body positions that teenagers take when Chilling: lying, kneeling, standing, or just sitting. The ability of having a view of the entire playground while meeting with friends or watching your children play. The Meeting Point has so much more to it than meets the eye.

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).
