MICRO PLAYSCAPE A Micro-Playscape is anything but small in play value. For projects having a limited budget or a small location, providing natural materials as an introduction to creatively engage with the outdoors is worth the investment. Additionally, a micro-scaled playscape can serve to test the level of interest and use by visitors as a means to expand into a larger offering as it proves to be popular. CREATE AND BUILD Placement of natural materials in a defined space leaves the decision up to the child of what to make of it. NATURE TUNNELS Taking advantage of existing landscape features, simply prune branches to create a crawling link to the next area of discovery within the playscape. MUSIC PLAY Making use of basic wood and PVC materials that reside in your maintenance shop can create drums and chimes for musical exploration.
