Our Early Years Foundation Stage equipment is perfectly designed and specified for many primary schools and kindergarten centres.
The reason for this is because we don’t just look at trim trails and activity furniture to be used for activity although it is great for this. There is a wide range of climbing structures and creative items which can be supplied as well.
Children under 5 can experience taking safe risks by playing on these pieces of outdoor play equipment with safety surfacing underneath if they fall.
This will naturally start to develop a mixture of physical skills such as balancing, strength, and upper/lower body coordination as they are participating in games using these pieces of apparatus.
As well as balance, strength and body coordination skills being developed in the young learners, OFSTED want us to promote and design furniture for group play activities. For example creating structures which allow the children to be part of teams is great because it encourages interaction with others and helps the children gain communication skills.
As they partake in games with teams their imaginative thoughts can create many more activities which will hopefully enhance their social competence and communication skills.
This is going to be very important in later life for work and personal development. The thoughts and great minds can go into fairy tale games, storytelling ideas and all this is looked at in OFSTED ratings.
With regards to the Early Years Foundation Stage Furniture, this may be anything from seating areas and benches to shelters and creative play furnishings.
If you allow the play furniture to have the imaginative effect then you will find kids nowadays can spend hours entertained creating their own fun ideas such as den making and building sand castles in the sand pits which could also integrate in being a long jump athletics facility.
If you are serious in looking to transform your early years playground facility then you really need to take a step into how children think – be creative, be imaginative because the young learners have amazing minds so allow them to stimulate their thoughts into activity.
Allow kids to follow playground markings on the tarmac through mazes and they will make endless errors but with their minds correcting this they are learning all the time while playing in the fresh air.
As we have teamed with many early year practitioners over the years we understand the outdoor environments needed to be created for the play areas so the students can meet the OFSTED curriculum.
Deciding which products are great for the early years foundation stage is hard to explain through an article.
If you fill in the contact form it can be explained much more easily with videos, images, PDFs and details of the products available to you. Some outdoor play equipment helps children understand and develop their PSED through turn taking and communication.
Play units can be creative to role play as being a supermarket, post office or church so we try to develop all our materials to be open to the imagination and creativity of your younger ones.
