Wooden Climbing Frames

A wooden climbing frame brings fun, adventure and an interesting dynamic to the playground. Having the opportunity to climb to new heights can inspire children to push themselves further, to set and aim for new goals.

An obstacle or a challenge, however it is viewed, a timber playground climbing frame gets users moving their bodies. It's a physical activity which encourages a wide range of movement for the development of gross motor skills. A climbing frame gets children stretching, crawling, grabbing and swinging. Whether they take giant strides or tentative steps, the climbing frame is a playground activity which contributes to every user's learning and development. It helps to build skills such as balance, coordination and agility too, with the most nimble making it across the frame in the quickest times.

Wooden climbing frames add different levels and features to a playground, allowing children to stop and play at a height they feel happy with. With timbers placed at various elevations and threaded around the entire frame, there's no pressure on users to push the boundaries of their comfort zone until they feel ready. The climbing frame is where children and young people encourage and motivate each other during active play. Building confidence and social skills, a climbing frame can contribute to personal and emotional development. It's also fantastic for burning off some energy.
