Play Value

The play possibilities of this element are not apparent until the user steps onto the stainless steel platform and discovers the rocking, jumping and pivotally rotating movements it allows. These movements are fun and increased play value is achieved when users interact with each other. The sound it creates when moving then becomes the target and control of the activity when it is realised what movement creates what sound - the roaring of the sea is discovered. Below the surface there are many little balls which move when the standing plate position is changed. The balls roll over a membrane producing a sound which is similar to that of the sea rolling in and out of the shore. The sense of balance and hearing are both challenged and stimulated, heightening the awareness of the senses through play activity.
