This KBT rubber swing seat is a durable and engaging piece of playground equipment designed to promote the development of key occupational therapy goals.

• Gross Motor Skills:

  • Strength: Swinging on the rubber seat requires the engagement of core and upper body muscles, enhancing muscle strength and endurance.
  • Coordination: Coordinating movements to swing safely and efficiently requires fine and gross motor coordination and dynamic balance.
  • Postural Control: Maintaining balance while swinging challenges the vestibular system and improves overall postural control and stability.

• Sensory Integration:

  • Vestibular Input: The swinging motion provides dynamic vestibular stimulation, enhancing balance, coordination, and spatial awareness.
  • Proprioceptive Input: Gripping the seat and maneuvering within the swing provides proprioceptive input, which enhances body awareness and sensory regulation.

• 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.

• Safety and Durability:

  • High-Quality Materials: The use of durable rubber, PP rope, galvanized steel rings and eyelets, and black PP welds ensures durability and safety.
  • Weight Capacity: The 70kg weight limit ensures safe use for most children.
  • Safety Standards: Compliance with the latest European safety standards ensures a safe and reliable product for children.

• Design Considerations:

  • Suitable Height Range: The recommended beam height range (1.8 to 2.4 meters) ensures appropriate swing height for optimal play and safety.

This KBT rubber swing seat is a valuable tool for promoting gross motor development, sensory integration, and play engagement in children.
