courage, self-confidence, consideration and turn-taking, all important life skills, get practiced.
The Himalaya is a fun, challenging play event for school age children. With its world explorer look, it attracts children back for more play over and over. With its impressive variety of thrilling play activities, the Himalaya offers multiple play benefits: the varied climbs via climbing poles and Jacob’s Ladder to the slide train children’s agility, balance and cross-coordination. The variety makes sure that there are ways up and around the Himalaya for bigger and lesser dare devils. The motor skills trained are important for children’s physical confidence and security in moving, for instance in the street. The sense of balance and space are trained whizzing down the slide. The sense of balance is fundamental for all other physical skills. The hammock under the platform is a nice point for socializing with friends.
