Slides are a classic playground item that is a staple in any play area. Sliding is a fun, intuitive play activity that kids of all ages can enjoy. However, some areas may be deemed too hilly or elevated to feature slides. AAA State of Play offers hillside slides that are designed to incorporate nature in its build. This allows playground designers to mix play and nature together. Hillside slides, also known as embankment slides, are perfect for parks, daycares, schools, or any organization that wants to incorporate nature in it’s play area.
Because hillslide slides are built low to the ground, they are safer than traditional slides. There is no ladder to climb and there are no tall heights to fall from, reducing the risk of injury. This also helps to mitigate costs as there is less protective surfacing that is needed to surround the structure. Additionally, it can serve as a stand-alone unit or it can be added to an existing playspace to add a nature-inspired play area.
