Proludic installs a great new playground for all ages and abilities in France!

The ‘Playground for all’ features 5 different new playground play spaces to meet all age groups and abilities. Proludic installed this in the Mêle-sur-Sarthe (Orne, in France) with financing from the municipality of Valley of the Haute-Sarthe. The space opened on September 2nd.

This vast area brings together all age groups, packed together at teh site during the opening event. Whilst teenagers played on the Multi-Use Games Areas (MUGAs), the Skate Park and table-tennis equipment, younger children were sliding on the cableway, climbing on the rope pyramids and swirling around the Hip-Hop.

The team designed a dedicated space for toddlers, based on the theme of horse stables. This space offers a multi-play unit featuring colours inspired by nature. A playhouse representing stables sits alongside a sensory play element composed of 3 giant musical flowers, and several springers. These play elements remind users of the strong regional symbols: the apple and the horse.

The Percheron (French breed of horse), which is represented by a 6 seat springer, did not go unnoticed. Designed and coloured especially for this play area, it quickly became the major attraction for young children.

Close by, older users were enjoying a match of the famous French Pétanque game!

Many elected council members, representatives of local associations, and residents from the region of the Valley of the Haute-Sarthe made the trip for this landmark event.
