Handhold
Physical
the vertical handgrips ensure a firm grip at different heights, necessary for rocking intensely. This trains hand and arm muscles.
The Elephant Ride Springer is a broad seat with two back supports and two foot supports and handles, making it possible for two kids to be seated opposite each other rocking.
Play Value
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.
Foot support
Physical
the possibility of footrest supports intensive rocking. Rocking stimulates the senses of balance and space that are fundamental in managing the world securely.
Rocking spring
Physical
response to movements adds to spatial awareness and sense of balance. These are fundamental motor skills that help the child's ability to sit still on a chair which takes a good sense of balance.
Cognitive
trains the understanding of cause and effect: when I move my body, the spring responds with movement.

Quality that lasts
Posts and boards are made of pine wood from sustainable European sources. The wood is pressure impregnated Class 3 with Tanalith E3475 according to EN335 (Equivalent to NTR Class AB). On request it can be supplied as FSC® Certified (FSC® C004450).
The steel surfaces are hot dip galvanized inside and outside with lead free zinc. The galvanization has excellent corrosion resistance in outside environments and requires low maintenance.
KOMPAN Springs are made of high quality spring steel according to EN10270. The springs are cleaned by phosphating before they are painted with an epoxy primer and a polyester powder coating as top finish. The springs are fixed by unique anti pinch fittings for maximum safety and long lifetime.
The teardrop handle has been designed in shape and diameter so as to fit optimally for older kids, and the special thermoplastic rubber (TPV) rubber surface makes it nice to touch.
