Use your strength and hold your balance! This seems to be the best way to describe the kind of play that takes place on the Supernova. A single child can engage in exploring its possibilities, but together with a whole group of friends, this play item expresses its real potential. The large, slanting ring is set in motion by the children; turning, spinning, balancing or just enjoying the ride are among the countless play options of the ever-popular Supernova.

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 inclination develops the sense of balance and muscle strength when walking upwards or pushing the ring into motion. Bone density is built when jumping on and off. Furthermore the cardio gets used when pushing, running. The grooves support grip.
the round shape allows assistance all over.
turn-taking and cooperation when finding new games. One different colored part makes it possible to count rounds when running, encouraging positive competition. The division into ring sections designates personal space for users who need that.
games-with-rules gets invented, which promotes logical thinking.
accessible and usable for all abilities and a wide age span.
balance and coordination is used to stay on the ring in motion and walking up- or downwards. This also trains leg and core muscles.
cooperation setting the ring in motion. The round shape allows assistance from all sides.
logical thinking, working with gravity when figuring out how to stay on the ring or make it move faster.

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 enable 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).
