Roundabouts & Spinners
Roundabouts and spinners are popular playground features designed to introduce rotational movement into outdoor play environments. Caloo supplies roundabouts and spinners for schools, parks and community playgrounds, providing engaging equipment that supports active and shared play.
Designed for outdoor use and regular access, roundabouts and spinners can be installed as standalone features or incorporated into wider playground layouts. They are suitable for a range of environments where space-efficient, movement-based play equipment is required.
What Are Roundabouts and Spinners?
Roundabouts and spinners are playground equipment that rotates, allowing users to experience movement through spinning. They are designed to support shared play and interaction, with layouts that allow one or more users to engage at the same time.
These features add variety to playgrounds and are commonly used to complement other types of play equipment.
Supporting Movement and Shared Play
Roundabouts and spinners encourage children to play together through shared movement. Their rotating design creates a social play experience, making them a popular choice for playgrounds that aim to support interaction as well as physical activity.
They are often positioned within open play areas where multiple pieces of equipment can be accessed easily.
Inclusive Playground Options
Many roundabouts and spinners are designed with inclusive play in mind, offering layouts that allow children of different abilities to use the equipment together. These designs help support shared play experiences within inclusive playground environments.
