Slide Types and Variations

Commercial playground slides are one of the most common types of playground equipment. Slide components are fairly standard: There is a raised platform and a ramp, called a chute, that children slide down. The two types of slide construction are freestanding slides, which are not attached to other playground equipment, and composite slides, which connect to other playground equipment. Slides vary in height and are usually made of stainless steel or plastic, and they are often brightly colored to coordinate with other playground equipment. Slide chutes have many different designs: Straight, wavy, spiral, parallel (side-by-side), and tunnel are some well-known variations of commercial playground slide chutes. When placed in a well-constructed playground design, they are known to be one of the most popular playground attractions for children, but they also have a number of other great benefits. Let’s look at three of the biggest pluses for adding a slide to your playground design.

Benefits of Slides:

  1. Promote Balance and Coordination: When a child climbs up a slide and then successfully positions and pushes themselves down the chute, they are building valuable balance and coordination skills. Additionally, it helps children develop special awareness, as they have to judge when it is a good time to slide and when to put their feet down once they reach the bottom of the chute.
  2. Present Healthy Physical Challenges: Climbing up ladders over and over again and sliding down is fun, but it is also hard work! Children build both upper and lower body strength as they pull themselves up and step up the rungs of a ladder. This means increased strength, healthy cardiovascular exercise, and the support and development of lean muscle.
  3. Encourage Positive Social Skill Development: Everyone always wants to use the slide! Why? Because they’re so much fun! At a busy playground, the slide is always the focus of most of the attention, which means there will always be a bit of a wait to use it. When kids are playing together, the slide is a great way to foster important social skills like cooperative play, sharing, taking turns, and learning patience and tolerance of others’ skills and physical abilities. These skills will have a lasting impact on their social interactions as they continue to develop, and all they know is that they’re having a great time!
