Kids' Obstacle Course Equipment for Playgrounds and Schools

Although traditional playground pieces such as swings and slides are both popular and fun, they won’t distinguish your playground from any other in the area, nor do they offer any unique thrills for the young children who play on them. Obstacle course equipment, however, represents a challenging alternative that will have kids returning time and again to take part in the fun. At AAA State of Play, we carry a wide selection of top-quality, commercial-grade outdoor obstacle course equipment that is durable and safe.



A playground obstacle course is a great way for kids to push themselves and take part in a challenging workout. This type of playground equipment is highly suited for a school or park, although obstacle courses can be used in any setting where kids come to play. Fitness obstacle course equipment is meant for active kids and may include an arrangement of floating tunnels, horizontal bars, bouncers, or some combination of elements that allow for climbing, sliding, spinning, jumping, and bouncing. These activities help kids reap the benefits of exercise, such as building strength, agility, and endurance, while participating in an activity that they enjoy. Obstacle courses also encourage sportsmanship and can even be used to help teach children about teamwork. Completing an obstacle course can also boost confidence in children.

When planning your playground obstacle course, there are a few things that you’ll want to consider, such as the layout of your current play area or the area where you are planning to install your obstacle course. It is crucial that you take the size of your location into consideration, as you’ll need to ensure that the obstacle course equipment fits comfortably into the length and width of your space. Additionally, you will need to decide on the types of challenges or activities that will make up the course. Although much of our obstacle course equipment is designed for children ages 5 to 12 years old, it is important to confirm that each piece that you ultimately decide to buy is age-appropriate and suitable for the children who most frequently visit your play area.

When you are ready to purchase obstacle course equipment for kids, you can choose from the available colors in our inventory, or you may order these components in custom colors to suit your tastes or match your school’s color scheme. Requesting a free quote is an easy first step toward buying equipment that will bring hours of fun to every kid. Obstacle course equipment from AAA State of Play can even be installed for you for an additional price. Our professional installation service is performed by a certified installer and is offered nationwide.
