This component offers motor planning, balance and vestibular opportunities. Children can take their shoes off and engage in a tactile, sensory experience. Children can jump off the log providing proprioceptive input to their muscles and joints. In a child’s imagination the log border becomes a snake, dinosaur or a magical hideaway. Its open-ended, suggestive nature lends itself to work with the children’s interests.

Log clusters are a unique feature that can act as a retaining wall, a path border, a gathering space, and a physical challenge all at once. Built from natural hardwood logs, log clusters offer versatile play opportunities that range from balancing and leaping, to gathering as a team, to quiet exploration of the shapes and textures of the logs. For maximum play value, combine your log cluster with a hill and diverse woody shrubs.

These logs become balance beams, dinosaurs, airplanes, serpents, locomotives…anything children can imagine. The logs are carefully chosen by species to be both non toxic and resistant to rot. Over time they become opportunities to learn about the cycle of life and their lifespan in the natural playground is the same as a traditional play structure…at 1/100th the cost. This product ships with all ocular impact hazards removed.
