Home Articles What should be the sports gaming equipment?
There should be a sports playground on the territory of any kindergarten or school, because good physical activity is necessary for the comprehensive development of the child. Sports play equipment can also be installed in the courtyard of multi-storey buildings so that children can spend their free time actively.
Such a playground should be divided into play areas so that children of different ages and interests can find something to do.
An area for outdoor games. It often looks like a sports ground, where Swedish walls, horizontal bars, mazes, basketball boards and other sports equipment and equipment are installed.
A zone of quiet activities. It is especially relevant for playgrounds for kids: here you can install sandboxes, swings, game elements like cars, houses, locomotives.
Recreation area. In this area you can take a break: benches or gazebos are placed here.
Requirements for sports and playgrounds
Any playground must be designed and equipped according to safety standards: children’s sports equipment must comply with GOST, sports coverings must be durable and of high quality.
How long sports equipment for children will last depends largely on the materials. Metal is often used: such structures are difficult to break, thanks to the paint layer, the products are resistant to corrosion, with proper care they look presentable for many years. Natural wood treated with antiseptics is also popular, and high–quality plastic is used on playgrounds for kids.
Sports equipment for kindergartens should be suitable for children by age (otherwise it can wear out quickly), be resistant to external factors (sunlight, moisture, detergents, etc.), environmentally friendly, and have no sharp surfaces.
