Children of all ages need a way to discharge excess energy. Playgrounds are a great way to get kids moving while still keeping them under control. Professional playground accessories will not only beautify the estate area, but can also improve business operations. How to design a playground and where to get the right accessories?
Are playgrounds still popular with children?
Playgrounds seem like a natural place for children to spend their time. Every parent surely remembers their childhood and the excitement caused by playgrounds. Even a few small accessories became the whole world to you and your friends. However, nowadays, modern technology and the world hidden in phones or laptops seems equally, if not even more attractive to children. If so, does it make sense to invest in playground equipment?
Movement means health and regardless of your children's preferences, you should encourage them to enjoy exercise – especially on sunny days. New, attractive certified playgrounds built on the estate will certainly encourage children to be more active and play with their peers. It’s also very important from the point of view of creating pro-social behaviors in the youngest children.
However, playgrounds are not only to attract children but also their parents. Investing in some interesting designs can be a great way to entice customers to visit your ice cream parlor, coffee shop, or another food court. The playground will prove to be a safe zone for children who are constantly under the watchful eye of their parents. They will in turn enjoy taking a moment away from their active little ones, knowing that they are happy and safe. If you choose your accessories well, you can be sure that your next walk together will also end up in the same location.
Playground equipment – choose your arrangement
The idea and decision to invest in a playground will be the first step in the right direction. Space will certainly be found as well, and grassy turf or special mats will be enough for safe play. A low mesh or panel fence will protect the area and keep children safe. What remains is to choose the right accessories — and here the matter can get a bit complicated.
If you want to attract the interest of children of various ages, you need to create several themed zones. If you don't have a huge space, consider a variety of posts or toys. And with more free space, you can even afford to separate interest zones designated for specific age groups of children.
Accessories for kids
For these age groups, safety is especially important, so it’s worth choosing certified playgrounds and ones that are properly finished. The edges of the elements must be rounded and the whole made of soft plastics. Play accessories must not be tall, and openings and passageways are meant to be challenging, but not a safety hazard.
For the youngest, Buglo offers a series of Mini products. Fairytale shapes and colors, many passageways, and slides — such attractions will interest all the youngest children. You can choose individual accessories designed to play store or imitate construction machinery. The individual constructions can be connected to a sandbox, which will become even more interesting for your kids.
Themed structures
Creating a playground thematically related to the profile of a restaurant, the name of the street or simply the interests of the youngest would be an interesting idea. This can be a great way to attract children with their parents to such playgrounds. Buglo offers, among other things, the Dino series, which includes dinosaur accessories. Robinia Play series will be more interesting to Peter Pan or Pirates of the Caribbean fans. Numerous references to ships and a structure reminiscent of buildings from exotic islands are evident. Most of the structures are made of wood, which gives them an even more natural feel. Both series include designs for younger children and those reaching their teenager years. Putting together selected structures can be very satisfying.
A little sport doesn't hurt
Teenagers no longer want to play dinosaurs or have fun in the sand. They won't be convinced by ropes and slides either, so you should create a separate themed area for older kids. Playground equipment for teenagers doesn't have to be difficult. All you have to do is tap into their passion for sports and activities designed to improve their physique.
Bugllo's product range includes the Sport series, which is mainly dedicated to teenagers. It incorporates find ladders or platforms of varying heights, pull-ups bars and ropes or handrails. A large part of the series is made up of products designed for team games such as baskets, goals, or even small fields with soccer bands.
Slightly older teenagers, as well as adult physical activity enthusiasts, will enjoy the Fitness series. This is a set of accessories making it possible to create a functional outdoor gym. Why pay for a gym pass or convert your basement into a fitness club when all the necessary accessories are nearby? The products in this series are durable and also adapted to adult dimensions. By choosing a few of these, you can create an almost complete gym and allow you to train all muscle parts.
Parent zone – a place for integration
Even the best-organized playgrounds on housing estates can't keep kids as safe as a parent's eye can. This is of course a minor exaggeration, but both the youngest children and their parents like to keep eye contact with each other while the former are playing. Therefore, preparing an area for the parent is another element you need to think about.
Places for parents should be juxtaposed stylistically with the playground and the structures located there. Many possibilities of arranging such space is provided by the Urbaniq series, which includes benches and tables, as well as waste baskets, bicycle racks or structures allowing the placement of the Terms and Conditions. In areas not covered with trees, you can choose benches with canopies to protect from rain or intense sun. On the other hand, an interesting proposal within the zones for the youngest are places equipped with changing tables.
Playgrounds from Buglo
Creating a playground in front of your home or in front of your restaurant is becoming increasingly popular. Structures for self-prepared playgrounds can already be purchased in many stores and even in DIY stores. Their structures may seem inexpensive, and the purchase and delivery of components along with building materials are beneficial. But is it the low price that is most important when it comes to the safety of children?
If you want to create professional and fully safe playgrounds, Buglo has an offer just for you. Our products stand out from the competition in terms of quality and are made for children. Even the smallest elements of the structure are protected, so the possibility of injury to the child is minimal. What are the features that make not only the representatives of estate councils but also the directors of schools and kindergartens reach for our products?
Resistance to weather conditions and vandalism
All structures we offer are professional certified playgrounds. They are made from materials that are protected from the elements. Steel structures are protected from moisture, so that they do not undergo corrosive processes. Wooden elements are covered with several layers of impregnation, and in turn the plastic is selected for resistance to sunlight.
Our products also meet all the requirements to obtain quality certificates. The structures are calculated to carry far greater loads than can be generated by children's play. Thanks to this playground equipment even resists vandalism. All of these features ensure that the play space will be aesthetically delightful and safe for children of all ages for many years to come.
Selection of natural colors and materials
We use a palette of interesting intense colors for most structures. This makes children happy and beautifies the urban space. The products offered by us can be personalized and customized as per the color requirements. The leading color will match the colors of the building facades and fences adopted for the given estate development.
We like to use natural materials in our production, and many of the designs retain that nature. We mainly rely on solid coniferous wood, preserving natural discoloration and grain. This can be seen mainly in the above-mentioned Robinia Play series or the Eco series, where the colors also refer to the numerous shades of plants. Individual products can create a true oasis of nature inside the city. This will not only be a decorative element, but will also teach the little ones a love of nature.
Nationwide installation and service
There is still the issue of installing playground equipment. When organizing a place for the youngest children in a neighborhood square, which will be used by children from the entire neighborhood, you can hardly count on the help of your neighbors. The idea of community deed work has long since become obsolete, and self-assembly is virtually impossible.
When choosing certified playgrounds from the Buglo assortment, you can count on the installation in the place of your choice. Our service crews work nationwide, and we guarantee care even after installation. This ensures that all components are put together securely and with safety in mind.
There is no denying that even the most interesting playground will sooner or later bore the little ones or turn out to be too small for them. The advantage of the wide Buglo assortment is the possibility of selecting additional products from the same series. They will make play more interesting and the whole playground will maintain its color scheme and unique nature.
