The Bronx Mega Deck provides activities for many children on both ground and elevated levels. The accessible stairway offers space for an assistant and for a break if needed, while the inclined climbing wall is another and more challenging access point. Once on the platform, there is room for many and the children can have a good view of the surroundings while socializing. The platform can be left via the slide or the curly climber, which are both great activities that stimulate children's balance and spatial awareness, which are important skills when managing traffic safely. On the ground level, the hammock invites a nice break and a view over the playground.
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.
