This European design is meant for kids between 2-5 and 5-12 years of age. It includes a play piece for kids 2-5 years of age, a rope bridge for kids 5-12 years of age, a climbing structure for all ages, slides, monkey bars, a parallel bar slide for older children, and a total of six swings, according to Smith's office.
