Playground equipment, though a large once off cost, is an amazing investment. Consider the number of children who benefit from it every day over the lifetime of the equipment and it becomes very cost effective.
For example if you order the Tarantula (pictured above):
100 grade 1’s can play on the equipment every day
That’s 100 kids per day for 200 school days per year
That’s 20,000 kid-days of entertainment over the course of one year.
Multiply that by the lifetime of the equipment, which for the Tarantula is a minimum of 10 years, – that’s 200,000 kid-days
The physical and mental health benefits of well-designed outdoor play equipment are worth a hundred times more than the per kid per day cost. Click this link to read our newsletter on the benefits.
