2021-10-18 02:47:43

There are several factors to consider when choosing playground equipment. These are Safety, Expense, Size, Durability, and Age Appropriateness.

 

Safety

Safety means the children will not get hurt while using the equipment. Some safety features include railings padded with foam, well-guarded edges to prevent children from falling, and sturdy materials to accommodate a variety of weights.

 

Expense

Look at your budget. It is necessary to purchase playground equipment that is not too expensive but can serve its purpose in child development.

 

Second-hand equipment can be a great way to save on costs. As long as the equipment is structurally sturdy, you can always make the appearance look new again.

Size/Scale

The size of the equipment must fit the playground or area in order to be fully useful and safe.

 

It should also conform to the needs and requirements of children using the equipment.

 

Scale refers to the space equipment takes up, plus the area around it needed to safely use said equipment.

 

Durability

Playground equipment must be durable to ensure a long life, less maintenance, and safety of the users.

 

An equipment’s durability goes hand-in-hand with the cost. It’s often better to spend a little more than to have a piece of equipment break after a few weeks.

 

Age Appropriate

Choose age-appropriate equipment. injuries tend to happen more often and more seriously when children are allowed to use equipment that is too advanced for them.

 

Remember the three age categories you’ll most often find for playground equipment. These are 2 years old and below, 2 – 5 years old, and 5 – 12 years old.

 

Final Thoughts and Considerations

Choosing new playground equipment and toys for your little one is an important decision.

There are many things to consider, and countless added benefits from choosing the right piece of equipment and toy.
