Dancing Mice Case Study

The "Dancing Mice" play equipment by Timberplay, manufactured by Richter Spielgeräte, is a captivating feature designed specifically for young children, combining imaginative play with gentle movement and learning.

This playful setup consists of a large “mother” mouse that rotates and smaller “baby” mice connected by durable, colourful ropes. Together, these elements encourage young children to engage in role-play, movement, and early understanding of basic quantity concepts, providing an excellent play option for supervised areas such as nurseries, kindergartens, and schools.

A MULTIPURPOSE PIECE OF PLAY

Crafted from high-quality mountain larch, the Dancing Mice are built to withstand the rigours of outdoor play while offering a natural, aesthetic appeal. The ergonomic proportions cater to young children’s needs, with features like coloured grips to stimulate visual interest and a smooth rotating mechanism on the mother mouse that promotes balance and coordination. The inclusion of Richter’s robust Hercules rope, which combines galvanised steel with polyester yarn, ensures durability and safety.

EQUIPMENT THAT PRIORITISES PLAY

The Dancing Mice offer a charming and interactive way for young children to engage with their environment, supporting motor skills and social interaction in a play environment that is both safe and enchanting. This product exemplifies Timberplay’s commitment to creating meaningful play experiences with high play value for early years settings.
