Inclusive Playground

A space that takes into account the needs of children, regardless of their motor, sensory, or intellectual abilities.

Accessibility for All Children Fostering Creativity and Imagination Safety and an Appropriate Level of Challenge Integration and Collaboration

Inclusive Playgrounds – Principles

In 2013, the CEN/TR 16467:2013 report was published, which became an important document in the design of modern, inclusive playgrounds. Developed by the CEN/TC 136 Technical Committee, the report emphasizes the need to design play spaces in a way that takes into account the needs of all children, regardless of their motor, sensory, or intellectual abilities.

The guidelines contained in the document indicate that playgrounds should not only ensure safety and physical development but also foster creativity, cooperation, and social integration. This approach aligns perfectly with the philosophy behind Mammutico’s creative playgrounds, which were designed with accessibility, flexibility, and children’s holistic development in mind.

Inclusive playgrounds enable all children—regardless of ability—to play together, develop, and build relationships, offering varying levels of challenge tailored to their capabilities. Unlike traditional play spaces, they do not exclude but rather support physical, cognitive, and social development, teaching cooperation, communication, and relationship-building. At the same time, they foster attitudes of openness, empathy, and acceptance of diversity in all children, demonstrating that working together and helping one another enrich the play experience.

How do we implement this at Mammutico?

Accessibility for Everyone

Secure Entrances and Flexible Access Routes

Mammutico playground elements can be arranged in any configuration to create barrier-free spaces. They can be arranged so that every child truly has the opportunity to participate in play and move around with the help of a caregiver.

Learning Through Play

Children can play using their sight and touch, experimenting with different shapes and structures. Even a “little trick” with a “bird” can give them a sense of agency.

A wide range of functions

The same playground element can serve different purposes, depending on a child’s imagination. Black crayons can become a blowpipe, and a wall can become a castle.
