Looking for ways to give children a challenge? We recommend the “Seesaw 4-Way Articulated Rebar” playground element.

It’s large enough for many children to play at the same time. It combines climbing, balancing, and the up and down fun of a traditional seesaw.

Although it’s bit more of a construction challenge, it adds greats variety to the playground. So far several places in Thailand are putting it to good use!
