Earth Day on April 22nd is closer - a perfect occasion to take a look at the topic of sustainability in the children's room . Because conscious consumption often begins with the little ones. But what does sustainable play actually mean? And why is this so important for play and climbing devices?
Why sustainability also counts in the toy
Did you know that children spend around 90 % of their time indoors in the first few years ? It is all the more important that your surroundings are not only safe, but also pollutant -free and sustainable . Toys and climbing devices in particular should correspond to high ecological and health standards - because they are used intensively every day, often put into the mouth and are constant companions in growing and learning.
Sustainability means more than just "wood instead of plastic". It is about durable quality, fair production and materials that protect the environment and health.
Sustainable production: what makes the difference?
The focus here is on sustainability - not only with the end product, but along the entire value chain :
- Certified materials: Climbing triangles, climbing arches and motor skills should only be made from sustainably certified wood.
- Made in the EU: short delivery routes, fair working conditions and local production- for the highest quality and environmental standards.
- Pollutant -free & safe: All colors and oils used are saliva -proof, pollutant -free and absolutely child -safe.
- Durable & robust: Products are designed in such a way that they last for many years - and can often even be passed on to younger siblings or friends.
Why climbing is more than just fun
Climbing is much more than an adventure for children - it is an important part of their physical and intellectual development . It promotes:
Motor skills: balance, coordination and body feeling are playfully trained.
Self -confidence : children get to know their limits - and grow on it.
Concentration & endurance : Children train their patience and attention through repeated movements.
According to studies, motor development is closely linked to cognitive development. Children who regularly act physically - for example by climbing - often also show stronger linguistic and social development. There are special Pikler scope devices that make your children's room a sustainable game paradise.
Tips for a sustainable children's room
An environmentally friendly children's room is easier to implement than many think. Here are a few tips:

- Use upcycling : Creative old furniture - e.g. B. from a fruit box becomes a bookshelf.

- Share & pass on: other families are happy!
