The play tower with balcony attracts and excites toddlers again and again. The many levels and sections stimulate exploration and encourage physical play. Children train cross-coordination when they climb the platforms, and cross-coordination is foundational e.g. for later reading. The slide is the fun destination, and sliding additionally stimulates the sense of balance, which is important for mastering any physical activity. The desk with conveyor belt is a tactile attraction that spurs numerous dramatic play scenarios. Running the hands over the spheres of the belt stimulates cross-modal perception. This is foundational for literacy and language skills. The tactile abacus spurs counting and understanding space, shape and measures. The desk invites meetings and is a seat for carers. The roomy stairway allows for breaks, too. So a small footprint but a big play offering!

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).
