This Curve Nest Swing Seat offers a comfortable and engaging play experience for children, promoting the development of key occupational therapy goals.

• Sensory Integration:

  • Vestibular Input: The swinging motion provides dynamic vestibular stimulation, enhancing balance, coordination, and spatial awareness.
  • Proprioceptive Input: Gripping the sides of the swing and maneuvering within the swing provides deep pressure input, which enhances body awareness and sensory regulation.
  • Tactile Input: The smooth and waterproof Oxford polyester fabric provides a pleasant tactile experience, which can be beneficial for children with sensory sensitivities.

• Gross Motor Skills:

  • Strength: Swinging requires core and upper body strength, particularly for initiating and maintaining the swinging motion.
  • Coordination: Coordinating movements to swing safely and efficiently requires fine and gross motor coordination and dynamic balance.

• Play and Engagement:

  • Intrinsic Motivation: The inherent enjoyment of swinging provides intrinsic motivation for children to engage in physical activity.
  • Occupational Performance: Swinging enhances a child's ability to participate in play activities and develop gross motor skills, which are crucial aspects of occupational performance.

• Design Considerations:

  • Comfort and Support: The large size (150cm x 80cm) and the use of a comfortable, waterproof fabric enhance the overall comfort and support provided by the swing.
  • Safety and Durability: The durable Oxford polyester fabric ensures long-lasting use and minimizes the risk of tears or punctures.

4. Check the Ground Surface: Ensure the ground beneath the swing is soft enough to provide cushioning in case of a fall.
