Amazing play choices await children in the Crooked Den and attract them to play repeatedly. A richly varied tactile and cognitive-creative play panel selection by a whimsical playhouse, which also invites social play. The wonderful play panels inspire logical thinking and creativity with their sewing and stapling activities and make children communicate and cooperate. A fine balance, meet and slide section stimulates physically active play for the youngest: accessible platforms lead to the slide, allowing for carers to assist. Looping the access, the balance beam, and the slide trains children's balance and cross-coordination. These motor skills are fundamental for movement stability, and they benefit children’s physical and social-emotional development: training balance and gaining confidence from attempting and succeeding.
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.
Hand-eye coordination is trained when moving the curtains to see through or pass things through the hole.
cooperation, turn-taking and parallel play inspired by the two flaps.

leaving a mark, deciding how to place curtains.
Shifting the rubber spheres up and down the rope, across the 'lock' trains hand-eye coordination, important for motor control.
Shifting the spheres and stacking them in cooperation supports negotiation and turn-taking.
figuring out how to turn the rubber spheres to pass the 'lock' stimulates logical thinking skills and understanding of sequence.
placing the ovals in new positions leaves a mark.
Hand-eye coordination is trained in fitting the string through the holes. This benefits children's motor skills e.g. when writing.
Cooperating on fitting the string through the openings trains turn-taking, empathy and negotiation.
Fitting the string through the holes supports logical thinking and rules understanding.
the string length and various holes allow the children to make different patterns.
trains the sense of balance, fundamental for all other motor skills that makes it possible to navigate the world confidently and securely.
turn-taking skills and negotiation when crossing each other on the beam. Room for a seated rest and exchange.
develops children's upper body muscles and arm strength as well as cross coordination. This is especially important due to sedentary lifestyles.
sliding develops spatial awareness and a sense of balance. Furthermore, the core muscles are trained when sitting upright going down.
empathy stimulated by turn-taking.
young children develop their understanding of space, speed and distances when sliding down quickly.
handhold provides good grip for less confident climbers. Pulling yourself up and in trains upper body muscles.
allows for a range of physical abilities to enter independently and securely, supporting play for all.
