The Stilts are a playground classic that appeal to children repeatedly. The Stilts have a basic play message: balance through without touching the ground. The Stilts invite jumping or balancing from one to the next. They can also be used as individual seats and cater to meeting in groups. The Stilts support children who are developing their skills, thanks to their foot-steps and inclination: children can always lean to the side to regain balance. When balancing from stilt to stilt, children train their proprioception and sense of balance. Balance and proprioception are fundamental in confidently managing the body in space. Crossing the Stilts with friends trains turn-taking and negotiation. These are important social-emotional skills that are basic to the ability to form friendships and relate to peers.
