A climbing frame is more than just a playset -- it’s an investment in your child’s happiness, health, and development. Here’s why it’s a must-have for your garden:

• Active play: Encourage your kids to stay active and healthy by climbing, swinging, and sliding, all while building strength and coordination.
• Imaginative adventures: Whether your kids are defending a castle or exploring a jungle, climbing frames inspire imaginative play that keeps them entertained for hours.
• Social fun: Playing on a climbing frame helps kids develop social skills like sharing, teamwork, and taking turns with friends or siblings.
• Durability: Our frames, crafted from pressure-treated timber or durable metal, are designed to last for years, offering both quality and value for money.

Whether it’s a birthday party or just another sunny afternoon, a climbing frame turns any day into an adventure.

What are the benefits of climbing frames for kids?

Safety first

We know how important children's safety is, which is why our climbing frames are designed with care and precision to create a secure environment.

• Pressure-treated timber: Our wooden frames are pressure-treated to resist rot, ensuring they remain durable and safe for years of use.
• Soft surfacing: To enhance safety, add rubber mats, chopped bark, or playground chippings under and around any play equipment.

Regular maintenance, such as checking for loose screws and cleaning the timber, helps keep your climbing frame in top condition, so you can let your children play safely for years to come.

FAQs

What age range can kids play on climbing frames?

The age at which your child can start using an outdoor toy, such as a climbing frame, varies greatly depending on its size and structure. Not only does the size and structure of the frame itself come into consideration, but your child's physical capabilities are also an important factor. You’re the one who knows them best.

It is common for children to acquire the physical abilities -- such as balance, coordination, and strength -- necessary for climbing around age 3. That’s why Outdoor Toys offers a range of climbing frames for gardens suitable for toddlers and children aged 3+.

How can I make a climbing frame safe for my kids?

Long gone are the days of concrete playgrounds - playing outdoors has never been safer. However, young children can be unpredictable. Therefore, it is important to prevent any accidents with a climbing frame by incorporating a few simple safety accessories. 

To safe proof your climbing frame and outdoor space, we suggest using these materials: 

• Rubberised mats 
• Ground anchors
• Chopped bark
• Rubber playground chippings
• Artificial grass

Our products at Outdoor Toys are made using pressure-treated timber, combining the best quality at no extra cost to your child's safety or to the planet.
