What Is Inclusive Playground Equipment?
Creating an inclusive playground is key to ensuring children of all abilities have access to outdoor playground equipment to socialise and play with their peers. Incorporating inclusive pieces into the playground means you can integrate playtime easily and have no barriers to play.
Basket & DDA Seat Swings
When selecting swings for the playground, a basket seat is a great option to promote inclusivity. These have a larger surface area and shape creates a safe option for those who need additional assistance and can have multiple users at one time to increase socialisation.
You could also opt for a swing with a specific DDA swing, which gives the child additional support to enjoy swinging. These are often larger seats with high backs and a lap bar to ensure safe usage.
Activity Centres
Purchasing a DDA activity centre or ramp bridge are great playground additions, as they are made in mind with users of all abilities. With multipurpose activities available, the size of the sections ensure wheelchair accessibility or with ropes low to the ground for safety – meaning each child has a way of increasing physical development.
Trampolines & Roundabouts
Opting for a sunken trampoline puts the equipment at ground level. Those with reduced mobility can benefit from this as it reduces the assistance needed to access the equipment. You will not need to climb a ladder, jump or push up to get onto the trampoline.
Roundabouts are also wheelchair-inclusive pieces of equipment, as they are ground-level height and allow ease of access for all users.
Sensory
We also have a wide variety of sensory playground equipment that are wheelchair accessible such as bridges, tunnels and paths. Having sensory equipment is a key part of a child’s development to experience different colours, textures and sounds.
