The loop of play between the four towers offers graded play challenges for younger and older toddlers. The slide section allows for high-pace, cardio and balance packed looping, sliding down and then running back around to slide down again. The balancing and wobble bridges invite stomach tickling balance training. The responses from the moving bridges when other children are also on it are excellent unpredictable challenges for balance. The tunnel encourages crawling, which trains cross-coordination and cross-modal perception, important for reading.
