Snug Play is informed by evidence-based approaches to child-led, open-ended play. It’s based on
-
Loose Parts play: giving children more “variables” leads to richer play, creativity, and problem-solving
-
Child-led exploration: children learn best when they can choose, adapt, and collaborate
-
Whole-child development: physical, social, and creative growth through active play
Guided by Play Experts
Snug Play was designed in the UK following a three-year study into how children naturally play. The research study shaped a simple idea: when children have open-ended pieces they can move, combine and reinvent, play becomes richer, more active and more social. Unlike traditional fixed play equipment, Snug;s modular shapes empower children to to create their own exciting play landscape every day.
Manufactured by PlayCore, a global leader in play and recreation research and design, Snug Play reflects evidence-based best practice in play and inclusion—helping children of different ages and abilities join in, explore together and build confidence through child-led play.
