Play is a universal right. Through our partnership with Inclusive Play UK, we’re bringing inclusive play experiences to families around the world. This week, we proudly celebrate Inclusive Play’s 20 years of innovation, impact, and commitment to creating spaces where everyone can play.
A Twenty-Year Commitment to Play For All Abilities
Why Inclusive Play Is More Than Good Design
Research in child development shows that unstructured play is essential for building social skills, emotional regulation, physical strength, and cognitive flexibility. Yet for too long, children with disabilities were excluded from the very spaces designed to support that growth.
The impact is real. When children can’t access play equipment, they miss more than moments of fun—they miss opportunities to reach important developmental milestones.
Inclusive play benefits every child. Shared experiences foster empathy, encourage cooperation, and help children appreciate different perspectives from an early age. An inclusive playground isn’t just for children with disabilities—it’s simply a better playground for everyone.
Standout Inclusive Play Products: 20 Years of Innovation
Inclusive Orb
Inclusive Orb is easy to grip and move in all directions. It’s mounted on a sturdy spring that keeps the movement going long after you let go! Inside the Orb are ball bearings that rattle for an additional sensory element.
Inclusive Seesaw
Bring your community together with GameTime’s Inclusive Seesaw! Our adaptive seats allow four children to rock back and forth as a team. Our unique spring design creates a soothing rocking motion and prevents sudden movements. This seesaw also includes a central pod at transfer height that includes Braille and tactile sensory elements.
Inclusive Whirl
The Inclusive Whirl provides ease of access for people of all abilities with its ground-level, zero-entry design. It features seating (at transfer height), a large platform surface that exceeds the ADA requirement for turn-around space and handrails for users to grasp while spinning.
Twenty Years of Community Impact
Inclusive playgrounds signal something powerful to the communities that install them: every child matters here. That message ripples outward — into schools, into families, into the way children grow up.
We’re proud to partner with Inclusive Play and are looking forward to seeing what the next 20 years of innovation look like.
