Nature offers a wealth of opportunities for<br />
play of all kinds. But with towns becoming increasingly<br />
built-up, there is less and less op<strong>en</strong><br />
space for play activities. The spaces allocated<br />
for playgrounds are oft<strong>en</strong> considerably smaller<br />
than most car parks. Where space is at a premium<br />
it is important to design play equipm<strong>en</strong>t<br />
which provides scope for a variety of uses.<br />
Our playgrounds make it possible to combine<br />
communication, role play and movem<strong>en</strong>t activities.<br />
They act as a hub for many differ<strong>en</strong>t<br />
types of play, where childr<strong>en</strong> can move around<br />
from one play station to another dep<strong>en</strong>ding<br />
on how they want their particular game to<br />
develop. Our playgrounds are designed to be<br />
close to nature. They can be ext<strong>en</strong>ded easily<br />
as demand changes and grows.<br />
