Bring a bit of nature to your playground design with the School-Aged Stepping Boulders – Set of 3. This group of boulders provides a low terrain for children to work their way across. The uneven surface of each boulder makes climbing a challenge. As they pick their way across them, they can write their own imaginative story for themselves or to share with others. They can be on an expedition to the tops of mountains, working their way for a forest, or they could be at the bottom of cliff about to enter a secret cave. And for those that just want to climb, the boulders’ size and varied shape will encourage children to come climb until their heart’s content.
For a set of all small stones that is more appropriate for preschoolers or canine friends, check out the Stepping Boulders – Set of 3.
When installing, the distance between stepping surface to stepping surface needs to be 12-inches or less (2 – 5 years) 18-inches or less (5 – 12 years). Use a tape measure to make a measurement from boulder A’s edge to boulder B’s edge on the sides closest to each other. This is important to make sure children can make the steps between boulders.
