Forest mega combo at Countryman's choice Plymouth

The most popular item of outside play equipment on display is probably the Forest mega Combo playcentre. This fantastic combination of climbing frame, playhouse and tree house just about has it all. And judging by the number of kids that try it out we’d say its their favourite.

Of course, many people want something simpler, and we’ve got all aspects covered, from charming playhouses, to basic swing units each made by the playways team.

Playways is a Devon based company, and are proud to be associated with this beautiful corner of England, but the fact is we travel all over the UK, recently making trips to Yorkshire, Lancashire and Cumbria, as well as a precipitous drive through the mountains on the Isle of Man.

Wherever you are, if you are thinking about play equipment this summer, and want something that is up to the rigours of childhood play, not just now but years into the future as well, and is stunning to look at, offering both active and imaginative play then please get in touch, we’d love to have the opportunity to let you know what we can do for you.

Yet there is so much more to playhouses for kids than just your convenience. Playhouses can play an important role in your child’s development in so many different ways.

A playhouse is great for health and physical development, as it will encourage your kids to play outside in the fresh air. Lots of climbing and running round helps to build strong muscles, develop crucial motor skills and even aid with hand eye coordination. Play systems with climbing frames or ropes also help develop balance and coordination in a way that will never happen with a video game or watching TV.

Playhouses from Playways also help develop your children’s imaginations too. What looks like a simple playhouse to you soon becomes a castle, an army headquarters, or the home of the three Bears in the mind of a child. Playhouses encourage creative play and story telling, and help children to play together, learning key social skills as they enjoy their games.

You don’t need a huge garden, or a huge bank balance, to give your child the many benefits of their own playhouse. Playways have sizes and styles to suit every location and every budget, to ensure that every child gets to stretch their bodies and their minds through energetic, imaginative play.

Talk to our friendly team today about your requirements. You’ll be surprised how easy and affordable it can be to install a playhouse in your own garden, to give your kids the best possible start in life.
