Let’s face it, no one is ever going to look back over their life and wish their little darlings had spent even more time staring at their tablets.
In a world increasingly dominated by screens, there’s something truly magical about watching your kids enjoy activities that epitomise a ‘proper’ childhood.
The laughter, the excitement, and, yes, even the occasional scraped knee, are all part of the unforgettable joy of simply being a kid.
Wooden climbing frames can transform your garden into a space where your children can explore and play, far away from the digital world.
There are many different options on the market, including infant climbing frames and structures for older children, climbing frames with slides, swings, and many other features.
With so many products to choose from, it can be hard to know where to start your search.
That’s why we’ve put together this easy guide, covering all the factors to take into account when purchasing a wooden climbing frame that meets all of your family’s needs.
Why Choose a Wooden Climbing Frame?
Opting for a wooden climbing frame for your garden strikes a great balance between functionality and style.
Their natural frames blend in beautifully with the outdoors, giving your garden a more cohesive look.
This organic appearance enhances the beauty of your outdoor space, making the climbing frame feel like a natural part of your garden rather than an intrusive addition.
Sustainability of Wooden Climbing Frames
In addition to aesthetic appeal, it’s important to consider sustainability when choosing your new garden climbing frame.
Thankfully, more people are starting to make a conscious effort to think about the impact of their purchases on our beautiful planet, and purchase ‘greener’ products whenever they can.
With this in mind, it’s good to know that wooden TP climbing frames are all FSC® certified. This certification guarantees that all of their timber is sustainably sourced.
Wooden TP climbing frames are known for being extremely robust. They are built to stand up to the worst British weather conditions and even the most energetic kids. It’s unlikely you’ll ever need to replace your TP climbing frame while your children are still young enough to enjoy it. In fact, when properly maintained, they can last for many years, reducing wastage and your carbon footprint.
Just think, one day you could be watching your future grandchildren playing on the same wooden climbing frame!
Safety Considerations
When choosing a children’s climbing frame, safety is always the top priority.
Wooden climbing frames tend to be much safer than those made from other materials.
They don’t heat up in the sun like metal children’s climbing frames, eliminating the possibility of burn injuries.
Wooden climbing frames also offer better grip than plastic and metal structures, especially when they are wet, meaning fewer slips and falls.
Look for garden climbing frames that adhere to strict safety standards, with features like smooth rounded edges, non-slip steps, and secure anchoring systems.
Wooden TP climbing frames are known for their durability and safety, ensuring many years of worry-free playtime.
What Size Climbing Frame Should I Choose?
Consider the size of your garden when selecting a climbing frame, as well as the age and needs of your children.
You’ll need enough space for the structure itself, plus a safe perimeter around it.
TP climbing frames come in various sizes to fit a range of outdoor spaces, ensuring you can find the perfect fit for your garden.
There are plenty of infant climbing frames available for the youngest adventurers, as a climbing frame that’s too advanced might be intimidating for tiny tots.
However, it’s a good idea to select a model that’s not only safe for your child’s current age, but also adaptable enough to grow with them.
Children’s climbing frames that are too small and simple may otherwise become a little boring as your kids get older.
Climbing Frames with Swings and Slides
When making your purchase decision, you’ll obviously need to consider the play features that will appeal to your children the most.
Think about what they run to first when you take them to the park. Are they little monkeys who love to climb and swing on monkey bars? Or perhaps they love the thrill of sliding down a chute, and adore climbing frames with slides?
There are many different types of wooden climbing frames on the market, with a variety of fun features and layouts to choose from.
The beauty of TP climbing frames is that many of their designs are modular, allowing you to add features over time as your children grow and their interests change.
