Both Indoor Playground and Trampoline Parks can come in a variety of sizes and ideally require a suitable open space. If there are existing rooms and mezzanines these may be able to be integrated into the wider facility dependent upon their location and size. A concrete slab floor is required and some natural light is always good.
Height is very important for both Playground and Trampoline equipment. Whilst there are no height restrictions for Indoor Playgrounds, Trampoline Parks require a minimum clear height of 5.20 metres.
Other key factors that influence scale are catchment, competition, required product mix, available capital and required income.
Soft play equipment has a wealth of benefits for the children using the equipment and their parents. The most documented benefits of soft play equipment are that it helps to develop motor skills and enhances fundamental cognitive skills.
Children learn to move in a safe environment with a greatly mitigated risk of injury due to the softness of the equipment, overcoming small-scale problems and motor tasks. Moreover, users enhance their independent thinking, problem-solving and their cooperation with others when playing with other children.
Alongside these exceptional benefits, children and their wider families can experience lesser-known benefits of soft play equipment. It prepares them for an active lifestyle, provides family leisure time away from electronic devices and provides mental health benefits to parents and children. Any parent feeling isolated can attend soft play centres and take advantage of supervised facilities (which Play England strongly recommends), while also socialising with other parents and friends.
Last but not least, even children experience mental health benefits from soft play as it becomes a therapeutic exercise that can reduce their own stresses and anxiety. Overall, soft play equipment is important for so many reasons!
Soft play can provide lots of physical and cognitive benefits. Unfortunately, not every child has ongoing and frequent access to soft play because of their location (no commercial soft play venues nearby) or because the household cannot afford regular trips to their local soft play centre. If soft play equipment is present at the child’s nursery, it breaks down barriers of access to these fantastic play spaces, simultaneously providing children with many health and developmental benefits.
Soft play centres and indoor play equipment provide mental stimulus to children. These items and obstacles present each child with a series of challenges that must be overcome with critical and creative thinking, problem-solving and physical activity. By facilitating an environment where children are present with problems in a non-threatening way, they can make attempts, learn from mistakes and success – and develop. Childhood learning is further improved by making tasks and challenges a
Indoor playgrounds have been around since the 1980s. They are commercial indoor play structures that help children to stay active and develop fundamental motor skills while having fun. The indoor play equipment will include different types of challenges, such as climbing ropes, ball pools, slides, tunnels, balancing equipment and much more.
Most indoor playground structures are designed in a specific theme. For example, House of Play can create bespoke designs in the form of pirate ships, castles, army tanks, and much more. We have even recreated London with Big Ben and iconic red telephone boxes. We’ll design and manufacture any theme you desire and ensure it fits within your space seamlessly.
There are more indoor playgrounds popping up exclusively for adults. The big kids can stay fit have fun in trampoline parks, Parkour venues and virtual reality zones.
Indoor playgrounds get children exploring and moving. They might not realise it because of all the fun, but they will be improving their cardiovascular endurance and refining key motor skills. But the benefits of indoor playgrounds aren’t just physical. Overcoming obstacles with other children will develop cognitive skills and social skills, such as teamwork and even empathy.
Dream garden provides a holistic service to anyone considering an indoor playground business. We are there for you every step of the way. We’ll even be by your side as you consider different buildings, planning permission and lease negotiations. And we stick around after the indoor playground has been installed. We offer ongoing maintenance packages and detailed operational support, such as staff training. You won’t find a more comprehensive service for entrepreneurs looking to start a commercial indoor playground in the UK and other country in world.
The answer to this question is two-fold. First, indoor playgrounds demand children to be active. They must take on the challenges of obstacle courses and individual pieces of equipment by running, jumping, climbing, swinging, carrying and lots more compound movements. Scientific research has found that children who enjoy playa activities like these for at least 37 minutes each day can reduce their BMI and prevent the likelihood of childhood obesity.
The second way that indoor play decreases childhood obesity is by promoting and encouraging physical activity. By showing children that moving around is fun and enjoyable encourages them to partake in other types of physical activity. This could be on the playground with friends or specific sports clubs, which further safeguards against children from health issues.
The first thing you need to create a sensory room is space. Despite what the name suggests, sensory rooms come in all sizes from small zones inside a room to full rooms. However, it is better if you can make your sensory room a separated space to avoid outside interference and noises, especially if you want to harness their therapeutic benefits.
You may require softer padding and safety equipment to ensure the wellbeing of users. This is not always necessary depending on the room and its purpose, but it is certainly necessary if some groups will be using the sensory space, such as children with Dyspraxia.
And, of course, you will need sensory equipment to create your sensory room. Sensory equipment comes in different shapes, colours and sizes (quite literally!) and there are plenty of options to choose from that can be tailored to your needs. House of Play has one of the largest selections of sensory room equipment in the UK – and we manufacture our equipment ourselves!
Sensory equipment is a specialised type of play equipment that is incorporated into sensory rooms. The equipment is designed and manufactured with the assistance of sensory experts to ensure the equipment can promote safe sensory activation among young children and disabled groups.
But sensory equipment is a broad term and there are many categories of sensory play equipment. House of Play stocks bespoke sensory play items by category to make it easier for you to find what you need.
Below are the popular sensory play equipment categories (note, some products can overlap between two or more categories):
Sensory lighting
Interactive sensory equipment
Tactile stimulation products
Early years sensory equipment
Audio sensory equipment
Visual sensory products
The sensory equipment you choose should be tailored to the intended users of the sensory room. For example, if you made a sensory room primarily for therapeutic reasons, you would choose calmer lighting and less interactive products.
When sensory room equipment is put together it can create plenty of colours and shapes – but there is always a method to the madness. For help designing a sensory room with the best sensory equipment for your needs, speak with House of Play.
Sensory rooms have been scientifically proven to provide therapeutic benefits to users. They afford safe opportunities for children to feel confident in playing and exploring their senses. This is especially true for children with disabilities who may have experienced anxiety or even pain outside of a sensory room.
But sensory rooms can offer even more. They provide an opportunity for all children to enhance their cognitive development and specific skills.
Some sensory room equipment encourages movement from users. Products like mirrors, lighting bubble tubes, some audio sensory items and interactive panels all get children up and moving around in a safe space. This helps to develop their motor skills at an early age. Many facilities that assist children with Dyspraxia use sensory rooms for this reason. These children can learn to explore movement patterns in a calming environment that is 100% safe.
And it doesn’t end there! Using the sensory play equipment on their own can promote independent thinking, problem solving and creativity. When using the sensory room with others, it can develop their cooperation to work on tasks or play together with other children. There are so many skills that children can start to develop in a sensory room.
Multi-sensory rooms were thought up by the Dutch in the 1970s. They were – and still are – rooms that include play equipment designed to encourage safe use of users’ senses. These spaces are typically used by children with Autism or Dyspraxia and adults who have dementia. Although any child can benefit from experiences inside a multi-sensory room.
A multi-sensory room is usually a colourful place with sensory equipment that promote activation of the senses by moving around in different ways, playing, socialising, exploring equipment, and problem-solving on their own or with others.
When a child has a sensory disability, they may find that using their senses in everyday life causes them stress and pain. The multi-sensory room helps overcome these difficulties by making sensory exploration safe, therapeutic and instilling confidence. These positive experiences can then transfer outside of the multi-sensory room for wider benefits.
You may hear other names for multi-sensory rooms, such as sensory rooms, sensory rich environments (although they are not 100% the same) and multisensory environments.
A sensory rich environment is a term used to describe any space or place that engages the senses more than usual. Some examples of sensory rich environments include a garden or flowers with strong aromas, a mirror maze at your local fairground or a firework display.
These environments include objects or events that engage our senses more than normal in everyday environments. The strong smell of the roses, the sight of funny mirrors and the sights and sounds of fireworks will all heighten the respective senses activated more than usual.
Some people use the term ‘sensory rich environment’ to describe a multi-sensory room too. The sensory room is a space where senses are purposefully heightened and can also provide a therapeutic benefit to its users.
It should be noted that all sensory rooms are fantastic for children with sensory disorders and ASD, whereas other sensory rich environments may not be. For example, a child with ASD can feel safe, comfortable and in control in a sensory room, which they might not when watching a firework display or in a mirror maze.
A multisensory environment is a name given to a dedicated space that activates the senses. The name is usually used interchangeably with sensory rooms or multi-sensory room. If you attend a school or care facility, you might find that the workers at the venue will call their sensory room a multisensory environment. They are almost always the same thing.
The multisensory environment will be designed and made with sensory products and sensory play equipment for children. It will provide the same benefits to its users, such as mental health benefits and cognitive development.
If you are looking for a local facility that has a sensory room and are not finding anything online, try searching for a multisensory environment instead. You may find something near you.
