Playground Equipment for 2- to 5-Year-Olds
Little Tikes Commercial has the play equipment and expertise you need to design and construct a preschool-age playground. We design our preschool playground equipment for children aged 2-5 years to cater to their unique needs, focusing on safety, fine motor skills development, and areas that will challenge them physically while being at a size they can handle.
Let’s explore the vital features of preschool playground equipment, such as complying with safety standards and choosing age-appropriate designs.

Durability and Maintenance
For safety and cost-effective longevity, commercial-grade daycare playground equipment must use durable materials that can withstand heavy use and exposure to the elements. Our posts are made of high-tensile cold-formed steel with a three-step finishing process. We also use compound resin, steel clamps, and dual-tempered fasteners to produce robust equipment.
Maintenance is simple with consistent checks to catch minor issues as they arise. For example, you can:
- Create a maintenance checklist with daily, monthly, and seasonal checks.
- Check surfaces daily for obstacles and hazards.
- Repair damaged equipment as soon as possible.
- Check drainage regularly.
- Do a thorough inspection after heavy weather events.

Age-Appropriate Design
It’s essential to scale equipment to the height of the children enjoying it. Playgrounds for the 2-5 age group should have equipment that young kids can easily climb up and down. Slides, ramps, tunnels, and steps can add variety and a challenge for kids as they play. Themed activity panels that hone fine motor skills are also beneficial for toddler playgrounds.
