The more the merrier... 👥
Research conducted by the KOMPAN Play Institute across primary schools in Scotland and Denmark explored how children interact with playground equipment during playtime. One key finding was that children naturally gravitate towards playing in smaller groups of 2-4 pupils.
These small group interactions play a huge role in a child's development. Whether they're navigating a play panel together, balancing along a trail, or creating games through imaginative play, children are constantly developing vital life skills.
Playground equipment designed for collaborative play creates opportunities for every child to participate, helping to foster inclusion while supporting the social and emotional skills that children will carry into adulthood.
