The Balance Poles are wonderful climbing, seating and meeting ropes that children will want to try out repeatedly. One of the reasons is that they move when climbed and balanced. Children love the responsive play more than anything. They will balance across the four ropes of the Balance Poles and train their balance and proprioception while doing so. Balance and proprioception are fundamental in confidently managing the body in its surroundings. This is important for instance when navigating street traffic safely, but it also plays an important role for children's self confidence. Climbing across the Balance Poles with friends also encourages children to learn how to take it in turns. These are important social-emotional skills that are basic to the ability to form friendship and relate to peers.

Play value is the value gained from play, the value that makes the child “want” or developmentally “need” to undertake the activity and because of this children will want to return to the item over and over again. Play value can be described very precisely in developmental terms, looking into the human physical, cognitive, social and emotional developmental stages.
the big rubbery discs are great support for the feet when climbing or crossing. This trains cross coordination, balance and arm and leg muscles. This combination adds to the child's body adeptness and awareness, adding security to movements.
the seats make a nice destination and meeting point and take cooperation when crossing by others on the way through the module.
