Delight

Kids will be beyond excited when they are introduced to the Delight play structure. Filled with a mix of ground level and elevated play activities, all children will feel included. When children first approach, they will be drawn to the PlayShells. Stacked in circular configuration, kids and climb as they talk to one another. As they decide they want to get closer to the larger structure, they can hop across on the 3 PlayPods to the Horizontal Ladder. Some children will not yet have the body strength to support themselves as they climb across and may just run to the stairs or inclined climber. Once they reach the main structure, they can head upwards to the BigWheel on the second deck to give it a spin. For those that want to stay at the lower levels, there is a BigWheel with PlayPod at ground level. Next to it is a long table with a play bowl allowing for nature exploration. When they are ready to go down the double slide, they can either take the stairs up to the upper levels or climb up the spiraled climber. Children can go down the Double Slide in pairs or wait for a friend on the bench by the slide.

When choosing a playground it is important to consider where the components have come from. Conditioned wood or recycled metal posts are both opportunities to take part in environmental stewardship. Wood was once a staple of playground design, but as time has continued, it has become less common. But, wood and natural materials make for natural learning environments that can be important for children's development. Several teaching methods use nature and natural tools as ways to reach children. On the other hand, the recycled metal used comes from items that would otherwise rust away in dumps. The recycled plastic comes from specifically milk jugs. As Americans, we tend  to drink a large amount of milk every day. This results in millions of used milk contains every year. Even if the play set purchased only uses a few thousand of those milk jugs, its that many more that didn't end up in a landfill. Your playground purchase can be part of the solution that limits waste.
