What is the jungle?

Jungle gym is a piece of exercise equipment on the playground designed to safely play children. The name has both general and specific use. In general, it may concern one of a series of equipment designs on which children are rising and performing imaginative games, or for their purposes turn into a fortress, castle or other structure. A specific Junglegym was special gaming equipment created with robustly connected bars, which was designed in 1920 by a lawyer named Sebastian Hinton and patented by him. He also imagined other types of movement, such as swinging and pending, and purposes such as brand playing or distraction and swimming. He also made his plans open to adapt the size of the children to use them.

Hinton suggested Tjungle Gym to allow movement in all directions through a series of cubes so that the child can go straight up, side, in the crank pattern, or any other directional option, and always have abundant support to stabilize. Thought about the possibility of falling, roHe decided that the crossed rope should be secured over the lower level of all the lowest cubes for other safe foundations.

While Hinton imagined that his work is used on playgrounds, generic jungle equipment now also often occurs in the courtyards. Some current equipment uses a rope, but most of them have open DNA and help protect children by placing the equipment on a suitable, specially prepared surface such as chips or other specialized material.

There are many variations of the size and shape of the jungle, while some equipment has multiple parts for climbing, swinging, moving, browsing, balancing, etc. and others that are focused on narrower purposes. Some companies call on consumers to contribute to the proposal of the jungle gym they take home.
