The Play Tower, U2 Slide is an ultimate play attraction for developing toddlers. The levels encourage physical play. Children crawl, walk and run the stairs. This activity trains cross-coordination, a fundamental skill for e.g. later reading skills. The play tower also has a slide, and sliding stimulates the sense of balance, which is fundamental for mastering any physical activity. The balcony allows interaction from the outside to the inside and adds a feeling for height which tickles the stomach. The window has curtains that can be drawn from both sides, inspiring social play and peek-a-boo.This supports the understanding of object permanence, that things don't cease to exist because they disappear. The roomy stairway allows for breaks and social interaction, too. Lots of social play and exploration in a small footprint.
