<strong>SIK</strong>-<strong>Holz</strong>® is an owner-managed, medium-sized and sustainably<br />
producing <strong>en</strong>terprise based in the south of Berlin. Founded in 1988<br />
the company became specialized in wood sculpturing with a focus<br />
on planning, designing and production of customised childr<strong>en</strong>’s<br />
playground equipm<strong>en</strong>t made from Robinia wood.

The name <strong>SIK</strong>-<strong>Holz</strong>® not only stands for individual products<br />
made of Robinia wood, it also repres<strong>en</strong>ts more than<br />
220 people, who manufacture these products. These are<br />
mostly carp<strong>en</strong>ters, cabinet makers and wood sculptors,<br />
but also locksmiths, merchants and <strong>en</strong>gineers. All of them<br />
exercise a high degree of responsibility which contributes<br />
to the success of the company.<br />
At <strong>SIK</strong>-<strong>Holz</strong>® you will find all company divisions<br />
consolidated – from the first design of a play structure to<br />
its installation on site. In the individual manufacturing<br />
processes you can follow the making of a product from a<br />
log to the finished piece of equipm<strong>en</strong>t.<br />
Every piece is unique. Irregularities in growth, pattern,<br />
branches and roots leave our sculptures and equipm<strong>en</strong>t<br />
their individual character and make them special. The<br />
natural form and structure of the wood is retained and<br />
shapes the unique character and the expression of our<br />
objects.<br />
For decades we have be<strong>en</strong> gathering experi<strong>en</strong>ce from theory<br />
and practice in order to understand the physical and m<strong>en</strong>tal<br />
developm<strong>en</strong>t of childr<strong>en</strong> better. This influ<strong>en</strong>ces our cooperation<br />
and membership in social networks and <strong>en</strong>vironm<strong>en</strong>tal<br />
projects. Here we take our responsibility for the childr<strong>en</strong><br />
and their right to a free play. We are committed to the region<br />
as part of our school sponsorship program. Through this<br />
direct exchange, we learn what moves stud<strong>en</strong>ts today and<br />
give them an insight into the world of work.<br />
In 2010, <strong>SIK</strong>-<strong>Holz</strong>® was successfully tested for its operational<br />
<strong>en</strong>vironm<strong>en</strong>tal situation and awarded the «Brand<strong>en</strong>burger<br />
Umweltsiegel im Handwerk» (Brand<strong>en</strong>burg eco-label in<br />
the skilled trades) in 2010. This seal describes a functioning<br />
<strong>en</strong>vironm<strong>en</strong>tal managem<strong>en</strong>t system in which all operational<br />
processes are subjected to an <strong>en</strong>vironm<strong>en</strong>tal impact assessm<strong>en</strong>t<br />
on a regular basis. In addition, we purchase nuclearand<br />
coal-free electricity from r<strong>en</strong>ewable <strong>en</strong>ergies. This is<br />
our contribution to the necessary <strong>en</strong>ergy turnaround.

of the person at each previous stage will <strong>en</strong>sure<br />
the full developm<strong>en</strong>tat each subsequ<strong>en</strong>t stage.<br />
f. w. a. fröbel<br />
The Kindergart<strong>en</strong><br />
Fröbels idea has proved it’s worth<br />
The provision of kindergart<strong>en</strong>s for childr<strong>en</strong> was and<br />
always will be a political issue. A line can be drawn in the<br />
debate directly from 1840 until the pres<strong>en</strong>t day. It has<br />
be<strong>en</strong> over 160 years since Friedrich Wilhelm August<br />
Froebel first developed the concept of a kindergart<strong>en</strong>.<br />
Froebel popularised the notion of a kindergart<strong>en</strong> that<br />
was supposed to be family-supporting and complem<strong>en</strong>tary.<br />
The neologism of the word ‹kindergart<strong>en</strong>› (in German<br />
literally child’s gard<strong>en</strong>) was int<strong>en</strong>ded in a very visual s<strong>en</strong>se.<br />
It goes back to Froebel’s affinity with nature and the<br />
romantic spirit of his time. It is certainly not meant as an<br />
implication that childr<strong>en</strong> can be compared to plants with<br />
its associated notions of cultivating an investm<strong>en</strong>t.<br />
Froebel’s concept of «education through personal<br />
developm<strong>en</strong>t» has a dual nature at its core: «giving<br />
and receiving, unifying and analysing, regulating and<br />
yielding, interv<strong>en</strong>ing and tolerating, determining and<br />
allowing freedom, perman<strong>en</strong>t and flexible...» Childr<strong>en</strong><br />
are nurtured towards autonomy and self-determination<br />
through this duality. Froebel’s regard was continued by<br />
his stud<strong>en</strong>ts and today <strong>en</strong>joys world-wide esteem. His<br />
basic instructional shapes – sphere, cube and cylinder –<br />
remain popular to this day, and can be found in many<br />
childr<strong>en</strong>’s toys from the most diverse materials.<br />
Kindergart<strong>en</strong>-age is a decisive stage in life and will<br />
impact on the future communicative capabilities of<br />
the child. The personality and habits of a lifetime are<br />
moulded at this early stage, and interest is awak<strong>en</strong>ed in<br />
discovering the world. A child’s activities are conscious<br />
processes that reflect his/her emotional <strong>en</strong>vironm<strong>en</strong>t.<br />
Par<strong>en</strong>ts and educators regard the first priority of the<br />
kindergart<strong>en</strong> to be to promote the child’s creativity,<br />
fantasy, and self-esteem. For this they need the support<br />
of society at large.<br />
Yet ev<strong>en</strong> 160 years after the developm<strong>en</strong>t of the kindergart<strong>en</strong><br />
it has not achieved universal recognition as an<br />
ess<strong>en</strong>tial compon<strong>en</strong>t of the social infrastructure of an<br />
industrialised country. There are insuffici<strong>en</strong>t kindergart<strong>en</strong><br />
places, and also large discrepancies in the quality of<br />
service provided. These range from predominantly functional<br />
child care facilities to educational establishm<strong>en</strong>ts.<br />
The political context comes into play where uniform<br />
standards are stipulated, as for example group sizes,<br />
professional qualifications, pedagogical principles, etc.<br />
Kindergart<strong>en</strong>s should have the same priority in society<br />
as schools.

Age Profile in Kindergart<strong>en</strong>s<br />
Planning play equipm<strong>en</strong>t age-based<br />
It’s the game,<br />
and just the game,<br />
that makes peeople<br />
complete.<br />
friedrich schiller<br />
A child’s developm<strong>en</strong>t is very dynamic during the first<br />
six years. However, it is worth taking into account that<br />
the developm<strong>en</strong>t process of each individual child is very<br />
differ<strong>en</strong>t, and childr<strong>en</strong> make large advances in their<br />
mobileity betwe<strong>en</strong> the ages of one and three.<br />
The initial means of movem<strong>en</strong>t is crawling.<br />
Most babies begin to crawl betwe<strong>en</strong> eight and elev<strong>en</strong><br />
months. Some babies skip this phase altogether, whereby<br />
they do not crawl at all and pull themselves straight into<br />
a stand from a sitting position.<br />
At around t<strong>en</strong> months, babies begin to move<br />
sideways from a standing position. They th<strong>en</strong> learn to get<br />
through narrow gaps betwe<strong>en</strong> fixed objects until the age<br />
of around 14–16 months, wh<strong>en</strong> they begin to take their<br />
first steps without assistance. Now begins the phase of<br />
climbing onto chairs, tables and other low-level platforms.<br />
However, this climbing is characterised by pulling<br />
themselves up to a higher level using their arms. Later,<br />
childr<strong>en</strong> consciously use their feet to push themselves up<br />
and cover larger distances. At around three years of age<br />
childr<strong>en</strong> now have the ability to fully support themselves.<br />
DIN EN 1176, the standard for playground<br />
equipm<strong>en</strong>t, therefore requires constant supervision for<br />
childr<strong>en</strong> under three years wh<strong>en</strong> using childr<strong>en</strong>’s playgrounds.<br />
This is also guaranteed at nurseries. However,<br />
many carers are unable to constantly supervise every<br />
single child. It is therefore recomm<strong>en</strong>ded to arrange<br />
the outdoor area such so that it is divided into sections<br />
suitable for the child’s level of ability.<br />

The suitability of playground equipm<strong>en</strong>t<br />
for childr<strong>en</strong> under three years is therefore specially<br />
characterised in the following.<br />
Platforms are recomm<strong>en</strong>ded with a height of up<br />
to a maximum of 1.0 m, which childr<strong>en</strong> can use<br />
by themselves. Railings are required for platform<br />
heights above 60 cm.<br />
Asc<strong>en</strong>ts, such as ramps and steps up to platforms<br />
higher than 60 cm must be fitted with railings<br />
starting from the lowest point.<br />
Swings should be positioned separately and not be<br />
integrated with swings for older childr<strong>en</strong>.<br />
Slide exits should be positioned at less than 20 cm.<br />
Emerg<strong>en</strong>cy situations can never be completely avoided.<br />
For this reason equipm<strong>en</strong>t for older childr<strong>en</strong> in the kindergart<strong>en</strong><br />
must always have ready access for adults and/<br />
or include the capability for providing assistance.

The free activity area can be shaped by a slight<br />
modulation of the terrain with a large agility structure<br />
integrated into a designed <strong>en</strong>vironm<strong>en</strong>t. There should<br />
be small relaxation and viewing points within the agility<br />
structure. These serve as a reward for effort involved to<br />
reach them. The physical demands on the child are not<br />
to be held too low. Ev<strong>en</strong> small childr<strong>en</strong> need challnges.<br />
The Swing Area are part of the activity area. They<br />
should stand in an alcove and not impede existing pathways.<br />
An assortm<strong>en</strong>t of swing types offers both young<br />
and older childr<strong>en</strong> a safe and exciting experi<strong>en</strong>ce.<br />
The Quiet area is distinguished by its organically varyingdesign.<br />
Play houses, s<strong>en</strong>sory games to stimulate the<br />
s<strong>en</strong>se of touch or musical toys, and modular climbing<br />
structures can be installd to <strong>en</strong>hance this area. Small<br />
childr<strong>en</strong> in particular, but also childr<strong>en</strong> with impaired<br />
locomotive abilities can play here in a calm <strong>en</strong>vironm<strong>en</strong>t.<br />
A Sand Play area facilitates creative shaping and<br />
moulding. This kind of activity is especially important<br />
for developing childr<strong>en</strong> of kindergart<strong>en</strong> age. The sand pit<br />
should be a g<strong>en</strong>erously dim<strong>en</strong>sioned. A sand baking table,<br />
sandlifts and sand chutes can complem<strong>en</strong>t the range<br />
of activities. During summer it should be made sure that<br />
this area is suffici<strong>en</strong>tly shaded.<br />
A small area for a Mobilee building kit site can allow<br />
childr<strong>en</strong> to create new constructions from various materials.<br />
It is recomm<strong>en</strong>ded that there is a store room nearby<br />
for storing materials.<br />
It is also recomm<strong>en</strong>ded that a Gard<strong>en</strong> is laid out. It can<br />
be designed as a fruit and vegetable plot combined with<br />
a pond or biotope. The ess<strong>en</strong>tial point is that childr<strong>en</strong><br />
should have the opportunity to experi<strong>en</strong>ce the cycle of<br />
nature and learn from nature through their own observations<br />
or from working in the gard<strong>en</strong>.<br />
Op<strong>en</strong> Areas can be used for ball sports of all types. It is<br />
crucial to always regard the outside area as a whole and<br />
not to obstruct this area with individual installations.<br />
A roofed terrace serving as a transition zone betwe<strong>en</strong><br />
inside and outside provides space for games in the fresh<br />
air ev<strong>en</strong> wh<strong>en</strong> the weather is poor.<br />
Along the terrace can have a paved path, continuing<br />
onwards outside, that can be used for wheeled toys.

The terrain modeling is particularly important at the<br />
design stage. The appeal of any outdoor facility is due in<br />
a large measure to its diversity. Topographical variations<br />
in elevation <strong>en</strong>tice the child with an exciting experi<strong>en</strong>ce<br />
of movem<strong>en</strong>t. This is b<strong>en</strong>eficial to coordination and developm<strong>en</strong>t<br />
of s<strong>en</strong>se of balance. Hills and hollows do not<br />
just make a visual impression; they create new spaces.<br />
These spaces can be consciously deployed to separate play<br />
areas ‒ for example into activity areas and calm areas.<br />
They can also be used as crossings ‒ for example in the<br />
form of a bridge ‒ to connect and ext<strong>en</strong>d a play area.<br />
The choice of plants and shrubs can also be used to create<br />
distinctive zones.<br />
D<strong>en</strong>se thickets can divide differ<strong>en</strong>t spaces. They offer<br />
places of sanctuary or hideouts and op<strong>en</strong> up a new world<br />
of experi<strong>en</strong>ce to childr<strong>en</strong>. Suitable trees and shrubs include<br />
hazelnut, elder, rowan, lilac, and dwarf willows. These<br />
can also be used to form a wicker tunnel, wicker f<strong>en</strong>cing<br />
or a house of wattles or the branches can be used in play<br />
simply as a stick or bow. Bookstores and the internet<br />
contain a wealth of information on wickerwork skills<br />
and construction methods. Wh<strong>en</strong> choosing the species of<br />
plant, be aware that the annual growth cycle of the plant<br />
should be visible to childr<strong>en</strong>. The blossoms in spring and<br />
fruits in summer and autumn can be used for educational<br />
purposes.<br />
Direct contact with plant life will stimulate the s<strong>en</strong>ses<br />
which are fast developing at kindergart<strong>en</strong> age. For<br />
instance the s<strong>en</strong>se of smell can be developed by growing<br />
aromatic herbs, which can also be harvested for use in<br />
the kitch<strong>en</strong>. Flowers stimulate both with their colours<br />
and sc<strong>en</strong>ts. Fruit bushes and fruit trees <strong>en</strong>courage a<br />
discriminatory s<strong>en</strong>se of taste. The s<strong>en</strong>se of taste in the<br />
modern age is oft<strong>en</strong> unbalanced by the synthetic flavourings<br />
so oft<strong>en</strong> used in processed food. Poisonous plants<br />
such as yew, daphne and laburnum have no place in a<br />
kindergart<strong>en</strong>.<br />
Many more positive b<strong>en</strong>efits for the surface broaching<br />
arrangem<strong>en</strong>t trough landscaped and cultivated instrum<strong>en</strong>ts<br />
could be added here. The awar<strong>en</strong>ess of the<br />
<strong>en</strong>vironm<strong>en</strong>t in g<strong>en</strong>eral is raised. Wh<strong>en</strong> childr<strong>en</strong> feel<br />
themselves as part of nature, they will all the more support<br />
its protection.

<strong>SIK</strong>-<strong>Holz</strong>® › Activity play area<br />
There are many options for <strong>en</strong>couraging physical activity in<br />
outdoor nursery areas. A covered terrace to connect indoor<br />
and outdoor areas provides space for hopscotch or motor<br />
skills games. Simple balancing and climbing structures provide<br />
additional movem<strong>en</strong>t stimuli, connected to the sc<strong>en</strong>ic<br />
modulation of the area. The change betwe<strong>en</strong> fixed and moving<br />
elem<strong>en</strong>ts (e.g. wood<strong>en</strong> structures and ropes) therefore<br />
demands the child’s complete att<strong>en</strong>tion. Various <strong>en</strong>trances<br />
and exits to platforms, towers or mounds, such as ramps<br />
and slides, <strong>en</strong>courage differ<strong>en</strong>t movem<strong>en</strong>t from the childr<strong>en</strong>.<br />
Combined structures allowing childr<strong>en</strong> to move to various<br />
higher levels dep<strong>en</strong>ding on their stage of developm<strong>en</strong>t are<br />
interesting. The <strong>en</strong>closed design of these floors, created by<br />
means of railings, provides childr<strong>en</strong> with a feeling of safety.<br />
Rooms are also available which can be used for role play.<br />
In addition to balancing, climbing and sliding, gym<br />
apparatus, seesaws and swings are also important tools for<br />
<strong>en</strong>couraging the developm<strong>en</strong>t of motor skills and a s<strong>en</strong>se of<br />
balance. Seesaws particularly teach the skill of balancing one’s<br />
own body. As a result, childr<strong>en</strong> quickly learn to control their<br />
balance ev<strong>en</strong> in extreme situations. Gym apparatus promotes<br />
the developm<strong>en</strong>t of own body t<strong>en</strong>sion, allowing childr<strong>en</strong><br />
to try increasingly difficult exercises. Swings should also be<br />
available in the physical activity area. Swinging is one of the<br />
most <strong>en</strong>joyable forms of movem<strong>en</strong>t. It is a basic need which<br />
has a very calming effect, promoting a dream-like state and<br />
relieving aggression.<br />
In the design of the activity area, the physical challnges<br />
on the child are not to be held too low. Childr<strong>en</strong> make<br />
great advances in psychomotor skills during the kindergart<strong>en</strong><br />
years, and need ever greater challnges.<br />

<strong>SIK</strong>-<strong>Holz</strong>® › quiet area<br />
The quiet area is reserved for quieter, imaginative games.<br />
This can be <strong>en</strong>couraged by suitable shrub and tree planting,<br />
as already m<strong>en</strong>tioned on page 9. Such modifications<br />
are also important to separate the area from the more<br />
active play areas.<br />
Small childr<strong>en</strong> particularly need these boundaries<br />
to be able to ori<strong>en</strong>tate themselves and not feel lost in the<br />
vast outdoor area. Peace and a feeling of security are also<br />
conveyed from the <strong>en</strong>closed or partially <strong>en</strong>closed design<br />
of this area. As well as younger childr<strong>en</strong>, childr<strong>en</strong> with<br />
disabilities or slower developm<strong>en</strong>t also need a quiet area<br />
where they can <strong>en</strong>joy activities according to their abilities.<br />
Combinations of the equipm<strong>en</strong>t pictured below<br />
can create interesting play situations. S<strong>en</strong>sory games can<br />
be integrated into a play house, or an activity wall with<br />
window holes can become the facade. Play sculptures or<br />
wheeled equipm<strong>en</strong>t can also contribute to stimulating<br />
creative role play. They draw childr<strong>en</strong> into a joint play<br />
situation that stimulates «learning from one another».<br />

A playhouse to build yourself!<br />
The first action to the building of the Playhouse could take place during kindergart<strong>en</strong> celebrations. Here the shingles can be painted by the childr<strong>en</strong>. If they use colours,<br />
stamps or carving tools dep<strong>en</strong>ds on their individual skills. Following the shingles have to be sealed with wood oil.<br />
The second action is the construction of the Playhouse. The excavation of the holes is done quickly, if young and old tackle Self-Build-Playhouse together. A layer of<br />
gravel is put in the holes to prev<strong>en</strong>t water logging. The gable <strong>en</strong>ds are th<strong>en</strong> assembled, put into the holes and th<strong>en</strong> connected with the roof batt<strong>en</strong>s. Afterwards the shingles<br />
can be nailed one by one. Finally, the roof consists of 80 little pieces of artwork which together form one big image.<br />
The third action is to find a name for the playhouse according to the organisation of a competition.<br />
The fourth action is the ceremonial op<strong>en</strong>ing of the Playhouse.<br />

Childr<strong>en</strong> like to reflect on the world of adults in the game. At this playhouse, they can try out: Build and tear down walls, use windows and boron, set up a shop or apartm<strong>en</strong>t<br />
building. The house can take on new forms and functions again and again. The childr<strong>en</strong> re<strong>en</strong>act the various professions they know. The individual steps are divided<br />
and organized in the game. As in the real world of work, a team is formed that solves a task together. So this Playhouse offers many creative and social aspects that are<br />
<strong>en</strong>couraged by the common game.<br />
The Playhouse is suitable for indoor and outdoor use. It comes in one piece. Accessibility must be guaranteed for installation indoors. Outside, a flat area is required.<br />

<strong>SIK</strong>-<strong>Holz</strong>® › Sand play area<br />
Sand and water games <strong>en</strong>courage the use of the hands.<br />
They develop conc<strong>en</strong>tration and spatial skills. They stimulate<br />
indep<strong>en</strong>d<strong>en</strong>t and imaginative creativity.<br />
Wh<strong>en</strong> playing with sand there is no set aim or<br />
rules. Childr<strong>en</strong> can set their own restrictions and goals.<br />
The quality of the sand itself will stimulate what can be<br />
constructed. Water too is a great <strong>en</strong>ticem<strong>en</strong>t to childr<strong>en</strong>.<br />
It’s a basic need to play with water, to feel it and observe<br />
it. Wh<strong>en</strong> combining sand with water it becomes a more<br />
cohesive material. It becomes a chall<strong>en</strong>ge and a pleasure<br />
to shape. Something new can be created from these materials<br />
over and over again, while all the time the hand<br />
and finger agility is being stimulated and exercised with<br />
precise movem<strong>en</strong>ts. As childr<strong>en</strong> get older, sand and water<br />
games can develop to a whole work cycle. The sand can be<br />
lifted with tools, transported and distributed somewhere<br />
else. Water also can be channeled and dammed with sand.<br />
The first physical laws can be learned during play.<br />
This activity leads to cooperative work, where<br />
plans are made and carried out together. Argum<strong>en</strong>ts arise,<br />
compromises are made. The adult world is reflected in<br />
these games. Sand and water games are therefore of great<br />
significance in the developm<strong>en</strong>t of personality and social<br />
skills of a child.

<strong>SIK</strong>-<strong>Holz</strong>® › additional equipm<strong>en</strong>t<br />
In addition to the equipm<strong>en</strong>t that is assigned to each<br />
play and experi<strong>en</strong>tial area during the planning phase,<br />
there are also items that can be in several of the areas or<br />
placed in betwe<strong>en</strong> areas.<br />
A table and chairs set can for example be used for<br />
an activity, for board games or for eating meals outdoors.<br />
The educator or visitors also need a place to sit down and<br />
watch the childr<strong>en</strong>. Seating arrangem<strong>en</strong>ts can also have a<br />
thematic design that stimulates role play. Games such as<br />
musical chairs are suitable for group activity. If a podium<br />
is added a small theatre area can be created. Many group<br />
activities can be organised here. Seating groups, for example,<br />
can be positioned at the edge of the play area or<br />
planned as their own separate area; whichever best suits<br />
your purposes.<br />
In addition to seating, roofing and shade also play<br />
an important role in the outdoors design of a kindergart<strong>en</strong>.<br />
Summer, sun and playground all go together.

Every kindergart<strong>en</strong> is individual. Just as pedagogical concepts<br />
differ, the architecture of the rooms and the outdoor<br />
areas are differ<strong>en</strong>t too.<br />
The following examples show both in outdoor and<br />
indoor areas how interesting play situations can be offered.<br />
The inclusion of the existing topography and the tree<br />
population is very important to create an organic structure<br />
of play offers which are based on the ideas and needs<br />
of young childr<strong>en</strong>. In the planning stage ideas are found<br />
quickly. However, during the implem<strong>en</strong>tation many ideas<br />
have to be discarded or adjusted or ev<strong>en</strong> developed until<br />
there will exist standard-compliant play equipm<strong>en</strong>t with a<br />
high <strong>en</strong>tertainm<strong>en</strong>t play value.<br />

Tree houses are very popular with childr<strong>en</strong>.<br />
They are individual retreats for<br />
adv<strong>en</strong>ture game. Unlike multi units, tree<br />
houses have to be planned with a tree.<br />
Ideal healthy and full-grown trees with<br />
widely branched tree limps are suitable.<br />
The shift from the beam into the ground<br />
should have a healthy bark. A tree expert<br />
will estimate whether a tree will be suitable.<br />
Tree houses, nursery / Torino (IT)<br />
There are two possibilities to integrate a<br />
tree into a play unit. In the first variant<br />
the tree will be integrated directly.<br />
Therefore big trees are very suitable. Their<br />
growth is limited. Nevertheless the tree<br />
section has to be chos<strong>en</strong> bigger than the<br />
tree is. The gab betwe<strong>en</strong> tree and platform<br />
can be closed or covered with or by a rubber<br />
lip. The root area needs a special care.<br />
Here is only a manual excavation permitted.<br />
Here we also have the possibility to<br />
avoid huge excavations by special post<br />
shoes. The second variants of integrating<br />
trees consist of spacious <strong>en</strong>closure of the<br />
tree with multi platforms. This is adviable<br />
for younger trees. Due to the bigger<br />
distance to the play activities the younger<br />
tree will be more protected.<br />

Many Kindergart<strong>en</strong>s in major cities have<br />
limited outer areas for playing. In order<br />
to make optimum use of these limited<br />
outer areas a careful and creative planning<br />
is required. The installation of one or<br />
several swings already requires lot of space<br />
and a location that is not crossed by game<br />
paths. Additionally a big sand area is necessary<br />
in which lots of toddlers can dig<br />
ext<strong>en</strong>sively. For climbing and balancing<br />
unit will only remain less space. For that<br />
reason it makes s<strong>en</strong>se to use every niche,<br />
for example offers for role-plays under<br />
staircases. Here is should be note that the<br />
sand play area is big <strong>en</strong>ough and not badly<br />
built by <strong>en</strong>trance and exits. Especially<br />
in narrow play areas the measurem<strong>en</strong>t for<br />
the installation of play equipm<strong>en</strong>t is very<br />
important during the planning in order<br />
to comply with all safety-relevant distances<br />
and fall heights.<br />

Interesting play areas arise by level differ<strong>en</strong>ce.<br />
Artistic, effective height sand deeps<br />
arise automatically by hill properties.<br />
However, there are also large play areas on<br />
which the play equipm<strong>en</strong>t does not come<br />
into its own. By modeling these surfaces<br />
with differ<strong>en</strong>t functions new play areas<br />
will arise. Hills and valleys animate to run<br />
up and down. Platform and playhouses<br />
on the hill can be worthwhile targets<br />
for resting and observing. Connecting<br />
bridges, beams or simple ropes betwe<strong>en</strong><br />
two hills or a hill and a play unit create<br />
path structures with differ<strong>en</strong>t difficulty<br />
levels. A crawling tube leading through a<br />
hill increases the t<strong>en</strong>sion within these motion<br />
sequ<strong>en</strong>ces and creates places to hide.<br />
Water play units which are following the<br />
gradi<strong>en</strong>t are very suitable. Little terraces<br />
along the the system establish that childr<strong>en</strong><br />
are able to stow water on differ<strong>en</strong>t<br />
places. For modeling a hill recycled debris<br />
from an excavation of a safety surface can<br />
be used as topsoil. The hills should not<br />
be too steep, to avoid a slipping of the<br />
planting and to facilitate the maint<strong>en</strong>ance<br />
and care.<br />

Indoor play areas ‹ Case studies ‹ <strong>SIK</strong>-<strong>Holz</strong>® 97<br />
Indoor play areas normally are hall<br />
playgrounds with a huge climbing maze,<br />
slides, ball pools and a bordering fast food<br />
gastronomy. On bad weather childr<strong>en</strong> can<br />
play and move ext<strong>en</strong>sively. In Kindergart<strong>en</strong>s<br />
also are indoor playground requested.<br />
They correspondingly are smaller and<br />
mostly housed in separate rooms. It can<br />
be a small moving structure in a gymnastic<br />
room or a tiny play unit which offers<br />
climbing possibilities and role-plays.<br />
The differ<strong>en</strong>t levels create more play and<br />
movem<strong>en</strong>t areas which are used by the<br />
childr<strong>en</strong> for climbing and hiding. In the<br />
hiding places, mind games can be good<br />
integrated. That means here also materials<br />
can be used, which are not suitable for<br />
outdoor installation. During the planning,<br />
the accessibility and the mounting<br />
to the floor and walls, as well as the<br />
necessary fall protection play a major role.<br />
Normally indoor play units have to be<br />
built on building site. The fast<strong>en</strong>ing takes<br />
place via special dowels. By using high<br />
balustrades or cladding it is possible to<br />
r<strong>en</strong>ounce the equipm<strong>en</strong>t with fall protection.<br />
