Lykkegårdskolen A fun yet challenging play system At the primary school, Lykkegårdskolen, in Kolding, you will find an impressive playground specifically designed for school aged children. For this project, it was important that the new play system fit within the existing playground space. Equally important was to incorporate multiple play towers to encourage games like tag, allowing children to climb, chase, and explore freely. Additionally, the design needed to include space beneath the structure to act as a “den” or “cave,” fostering imaginative play. The play system from the Explore theme world, was an optimal choice, as it is one of the most challenging play systems offered in the series, designed to support the development of strength, coordination and gross motor skills as children climb to the high platforms. The play system consists of three platforms which encourage social interaction and cooperative play with other children. The high floor height allows for plenty of space underneath the play system, which is perfect for children seeking a calmer space while still engaging with interactive play panels. One of the most eye catching design features is the impressive tube slide, which is a fun and thrilling activity that children love. Oftentimes, children will go up and down the slide in a repetitive way, giving them a feeling of accomplishment. At the lower level, interactive play elements such as the sand kitchen panel, treasure chest and key, which engage children’s fine motor skills while stimulating creativity and cognitive development. Features like the binoculars encourage imaginative play, role-playing and storytelling. Role-playing is a crucial aspect of children’s development, teaching kids social rules, negotiation, compromise, and conflict resolution. All of these skills are valuable beyond the playground, as well as the classroom.
