I would like to install indoor playground in our house, any suggestions?
thank you for everyone's ideas so much, finally I found a safe and easy Panda Playground on https://ezplaytoys.com/ , my kid loves it. But I will definitely take an effort to create one myself.
My friend is really good at woodworking and she turned their basement extra room into a fun playroom. She installed a swing onto the ceiling and a climbing rope. She also built a big slide along the side of the wall....sort of built into the wall. Another friend put in a climbing wall on a wood wall in her house and a chin up bar in a doorway.
do you have the space? do you have the money? do you just need ideas on how to make one work? pinterest has tons of ideas if you just search on there. just make sure you make it safe, have a soft landing for falls and make it fun!
A lot depends on what you want to do.
A good option might be Quadro.
It's like building with pvc pipes but easier.
You can build something to climb on and when you get tired of that, then build something else with it.
It's good inside, and outside.
My mom got a builders kit for our son when he was little.
We built things for him at first, then he helped us, and soon he could build on his own - with supervision - you have to make sure it's a stable structure and all the connectors are properly fastened.
He so loves it!
He's in college now and still builds with it - tables, chairs, a stand for his archery target, etc.
In between uses - it packs down into it's box and can be stored out of the way.
It's impossible to outgrow this!
I've worked at child care centers that had indoor playgrounds and they were nice. You need to make sure you use those big foam squares or carpet in squares that can be removed and switched out. Spills happen and sometimes tears happen too. The floors got wet in one of the indoor playgrounds and they had to rip up the entire floor due to mold growing under the carpet. They switched to the carpet squares and when something got wet they just pulled them up and leaned them against the wall to air dry. Next day they could go back down. Underneath was dry and the foam or carpet had dried.
For fall zones you'll need to investigate what materials would work for your size OR you could just keep things to a lower height. If you're going to do a real playground inside then I suggest you look for slides and things that have rails that would keep the kids from falling off the top.
How elaborate are you thinking and for what age range? Personally, we just had a plastic slide and an adjustable height basketball hoop in a room in our house and it worked great for indoor fun on bad weather days.
buy a big house and get a good contractor.
