The Brooklyn Mega Deck creates a great frame of play for many children – and on more levels. Different access, egress and ground level activities are provided to ensure a high level of varied play benefits for everyone. Social interaction and language skills are stimulated when communicating from the bridge or through the window with peers on ground level, when using the talk tubes, sliding together or playing dramatic play using the desk and mailbox panel. Besides supporting social and cognitive skills, the structure supports physical skills, such as cross coordination when walking the balance beam, climbing up the pipe ladder or the inclined wall. Cross coordination trains the cooperation of left and right hemispheres of the brain, which is necessary for cognitive tasks such as being able to read.
