Playground Climbing Equipment for Preschoolers

Slide Climber

• A slide climber is a fun choice for preschoolers. It is a small structure that has a slide on one side, a platform to stand on and three sides offering different ways to climb up the structure. These structures have a fort-like quality, as well as a slide, and provide hours of fun for groups of children or a single child.

Snap Walls

• With snap walls it is easy to create multiple climbing structures that are not only fun, but safe due to the soft material that they are made out of. It is possible to make structures that are also short so they are perfect for young children. The great thing about snap walls is that when the weather changes and they need to be stored, they can be taken apart and used as mats. You can also keep the structure intact and the children can play on it indoors.

Climbing Summit

• Mini plastic pyramids are available for preschool-aged children. They have foot and hand holes so that children can climb up them without slipping or falling off. These structures can enhance playground offerings, since they are different from most play apparatus children are familiar with.

Clubhouses

• Plastic clubhouses are also available. It is possible to purchase ones with slides and two levels so that young children can play inside them, as well as climb up stairs and multiple layers. Clubhouses provide a sense of belonging and privacy to children because they feel they have a place just for them and their friends.

Soft Climbers

• Soft climbers are ideal climbing equipment for preschoolers. Not only are they weather-resistant and safe, but they can be changed and rearranged to form multiple play structures. Large foam shapes covered with soft colored plastic are stacked and arranged so that children can climb up them, slide down them and play all over the structure. They come in slide shapes, circles, bumps, cubes, floor mats and other shapes.

Arch climber

• An arch climber is a great toy for young children. It is made of soft material and bright colors. The arch climber is short and has large bumps allowing children to climb over it with the additional safety of railing-like sides to keep them from falling off.
