Types of Playground Climbers Available

Little Tikes Commercial has created a range of fixtures to take your climbing playground equipment to the next level. Our climbers can be custom-made to suit your needs and bring color, life, and imagination to your playground. Each type offers unique developmental benefits — some are designed to provide a challenge while others are perfect for younger users.

Depending on the size and layout of your space, you may wish to consider more independent freestanding structures or large connected structures that allow children to maximize the playground area. We’ve got a little something for everyone.

Available types of climbing playground equipment include:

Freestanding climbers

Our freestanding climbers give children an extra challenge — and give buyers the utmost flexibility. Install a new freestanding climber or replace an old one to revitalize your play structures.

Net climbers

Perfect for older users who are still enjoying the playground, net climbers are the ultimate choice for naturally playful children. Kids will use our net climbers to reach the top of the structure, with varying levels of difficulty.

Quad climbers

As one of our freestanding play structures, quad climbers encourage upper body strength and balance.

Dome climbers

Geometric and swirling patterns mean double the fun and double the effort! Kids love our curved play structures that help improve their physical development.

Climbing walls and panel climbers

Whether curved, rock, or a climbing cargo net, climbing walls give kids a dynamic dexterity challenge. They can build upper body strength while developing better balance and instincts with selecting the best climbing holds.

Climbers

Our line of climbing play structures also includes several themed options, such as a series of wood-themed structures. From the Tree Stump climber to the Nu-Edge X Lumberjack Climber, kids can get in touch with nature while completing challenges designed to encourage dexterity, balance, and critical thinking.

Most of our playground equipment is designed for multiple users so children can play alongside each other and develop strong social skills — no need to wait for one-at-a-time play. This dynamic encourages children to attempt new, challenging obstacles with peers by their side.

BEST CLIMBERS FOR DIFFERENT AGE GROUPS

In order for children to have a safe play experience, it’s important to choose the appropriate commercial playground climbers for their playground. Here’s what you should take into consideration when adding playground climbing equipment for the following age groups.

  • 6-23 Months – Infants and toddlers mostly get around by crawling, so you should look for equipment that is low to the ground and sturdy for little hands that want to explore.
  • 2-5 Years old – Toddlers and preschoolers are more active than the last bunch, so you should look for mentally and physically stimulating equipment that allows this age group to learn in a safe environment.
  • 5-12 Years old – School aged children should have a variety of climbing equipment on their playground that allows both younger and older children to safely test their boundaries.
  • 14+ Years old – These climbing structures for teens, young adults and adults should challenge the user to improve their physical fitness with a variety of outdoor exercise equipment structures.

Deciding which age-appropriate climbing equipment belongs on your playground equipment is an important consideration in the planning phase of playground construction or improvement. Regardless of which age group is using your equipment, trust that Little Tikes Commercial can help you choose the equipment that will stand the test of time.

THE BENEFITS OF OUTDOOR PLAY

Commercial playground climbers are made to bring kids delight and joy — but you’ll find that playtime is about much more than just having fun. Outdoor play has a host of health benefits, helping children discover new things, connect with nature, build relationships with others, and develop strong cognitive and physical abilities.

The benefits of outdoor play cover every aspect of a child’s developmental needs:

Physical

Climbing playground equipment is the most fun workout possible. Kids will love exercising their bodies as they build upper body strength and dexterity.

Emotional

Climbing equipment offers many challenges for children to overcome. Learning how to climb a wall, conquer a boulder, balance on the rope, or summit the tallest peak will help children develop confidence in their abilities. As they face their fears and conquer the obstacles in front of them, they’ll find their inner strength and discover the joys of reaching a goal.

Cognitive

In addition to physical strength, playing on climbing equipment requires cognitive abilities. Balancing, timing, motor skills, and creative thinking all come into play through these climbing challenges.

Sensory

Tactile play structures give kids the chance to get in touch with their bodies and the world around them. Nature, material textures, and the sights, smells, and sounds of the playground bring their eight sensory systems to life.

Social

Playgrounds are inherently social spheres, particularly when it comes to the intentional inclusivity of Little Tikes Commercial products. As kids play together, they develop fundamental social skills including communication, sharing, waiting for their turn, and collaborating to solve problems.

BENEFITS OF PLAYGROUND CLIMBERS

Kids love the thrill and adventure that comes with climbing, and our vast selection of playground climbing structures ensures your playground will satisfy their need to reach higher. Our playground climbers, panel climbers, and climbing walls push children to use their imaginations, climb to their potential, and increase their endurance, strength, and stamina.

Climbing playground equipment encourages children to exercise leg, back, and arm muscles that build lower-body, upper-body, and core strength. Climbing has several benefits for children, including:

  • Increases heart rate
  • Improves cardiovascular health, agility, balance, and hand-eye coordination
  • Encourages children to develop and hone their problem-solving skills
  • Motivates kids to develop persistence as they work to reach a goal

Climbing can also contribute to the benefits of sensory play by stimulating the vestibular, visual, proprioception, and tactile senses. Children can navigate the world and effectively relate to objects when they climb.
