Big Foot Playground Equipment - Big Foot play equipment provides with an exciting stimulating and safe environment for play. Designed for a modern generation Big Foot encourages the elements of play neglected by digital entertainment. With a bold new aesthetic Big Foot challenges the conventions of playground design. There are no restrictions, barriers or out of bounds areas. Children have the freedom to play learn and create. Every surface of Big Foot is covered with impact absorbing safety surfacing.

Construction and surfacing - Every surface of Big Foot is covered in impacting absorbing safety surfacing. This is made from recycled car tyres. The top layer of the surfacing can be produced in a range of colours. All of the structures are simply constructed using a steel frame, recycled plastic support panels and the rubber safety surfacing.

Slide Mountain - Big Foot is designed to encourages the elements of play which are not found in digital entertainment. These elements or types of play are: Motor, Fantasy, Social and Self directed. Each pieces of equipment in the Big Foot range aims to encourage and facilitate a specific type of play.

Cave Mountain - Cave Mountain has both an external and internal climbing structure. This creates an interesting area between the structures for children to explore. The shapes and spaces of cave mountain lend themselves to fantasy play where the structure can become anything from a pirate ship to a distant planet.

Wobble ground - Wobble ground is a play surface that moves and shifts as children step on it. The movement of each child affects the surface for the other children. This encourages interaction and social play. Safety tiles connected with rubber hinges are supported by universal joints. These joints provide support while allowing movement. They are reused components taken from crapped cars

Roundabout Rock - Roundabout Rock encourages self-directed play. Self-directed play is when children make up their own activities and games. The roundabout acts a spinning pointer. Children can use it along with the areas of colored surfacing to create their own games and activities.
