The Outcome
Timotay Playscapes created a natural bespoke solution that included:
- Bespoke tree house
- Music play
- Surfacing
Tree houses offer primary school-aged children a unique blend of physical and cognitive benefits. Beyond the thrill of climbing and exploring, tree houses stimulate creativity and imaginative play. Elevated spaces provide a sense of adventure, fostering courage and risk assessment. Music education for this age group enhances cognitive skills, memory, and emotional expression. Learning rhythm and melody promotes language development and teamwork. Both tree houses and music create environments where children can build confidence, socialise, and develop a lifelong love for exploration and the arts, contributing to holistic and well-rounded growth
