Soft Play (soft play equipment) is a low-risk, high-safety play facility designed for young children, widely used in nurseries, early childhood education centers and kindergartens. This equipment is made of soft, cushioning materials such as EVA foam, PVC leather, etc., which can effectively reduce collision injuries when children are playing. For nurseries, equipping with suitable Soft Play equipment can not only improve children's motor skills, social skills and creativity, but also ensure compliance with child safety standards.

Core components of Soft Play

Soft Play Climbing Structures

Soft climbing structures are one of the core equipment of Soft Play. They are usually composed of modular EVA foam blocks that can be combined into different shapes, such as stairs, ramps, tunnels, etc. This equipment can exercise children's balance, physical coordination and courage.

Recommended configuration: Nurseries can choose small and medium-sized climbing frames with a height of no more than 1.2 meters to ensure that children will not be injured by falling while climbing.

Safety standards: Must comply with EN 1176 (European amusement equipment safety standard) and ASTM F1918 (American soft amusement equipment standard).

Soft Play Slides

Soft slides usually use a high-density foam core + a wear-resistant PVC outer layer, which is safer than traditional plastic or metal slides and is suitable for children aged 2-6.

Recommended configuration:

The slide height is recommended to be no more than 1.5 meters, with a gentle slope (about 30°).

The bottom needs to be equipped with a cushion to prevent children from getting injured when sliding.

Soft Building Blocks

These toys are made of lightweight foam, and children can assemble them freely to cultivate creativity and spatial cognition.

Recommended configuration: Choose building blocks with rounded corners and no small parts to avoid the risk of swallowing.

Soft Play Ball Pits

The ball pit is one of the most popular soft play equipment in nurseries, which can promote children's tactile perception and social interaction.

Recommended configuration:

The depth should not exceed 50cm to prevent young children from falling into it.

Use environmentally friendly PE material balls with a diameter of not less than 7cm to avoid accidental swallowing.
