Use our Play Element Icons to help make choosing the right play equipment that little bit easier.
Each icon is a simple silhouette showing a key play activity – like climbing, sliding, or balancing – so you can quickly see what kind of play value a product offers. They’re especially useful for councils working to meet LAP, LEAP, and NEAP requirements, helping you spot the right mix of activities at a glance.
Keep an eye out for them as you browse – they’re there to guide you to the best fit for your space and community.
