Why it matters

The Benefits of Playground Play Panels

Not every child wants to run, climb and swing, and play panels give those children a way into the playground. Mounted at a height that suits standing or seated play, they bring games, sound and sensory discovery to everyone.
  • Inclusive by Design – With mounting heights to suit standing or seated play, panels are one of the most accessible pieces of playground equipment available.
  • Supports Sensory Development – Textures, colours, sounds and moving parts stimulate touch, sight and hearing, which is why sensory panels are a staple of SEN play spaces.
  • Sneaks Learning Into Play – Counting shapes, spelling in Braille, matching emotions and playing the xylophone all build skills without a classroom in sight.
  • Encourages Calm, Social Play – Two-player games like tic-tac-toe and role-play panels give children a quieter way to interact and take turns.
  • Fits Where Nothing Else Will – Wall-mounted, fence-fixed, or freestanding, panels add play value to walkways, quiet corners and spaces too small for anything else.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about specifying, installing and maintaining Play Panels.
What are play panels used for in playgrounds?

Play panels encourage engagement through touch, sound and interactive games, supporting sensory development, learning and social play. They are often used to add play value in spaces where larger equipment will not fit.

We supply sensory play panels, musical panels including xylophones and chimes, roleplay and communication panels, educational designs like counting, Braille and UK Sign Language panels, two-player game panels and fitness panels.

Are play panels suitable for inclusive playgrounds?

Yes, they are one of the best inclusive play investments you can make. Panels can be mounted at a height that suits wheelchair users or standing play, and designs like our emotions communication, Braille and UK Sign Language panels support children with a wide range of needs.

Where can play panels be installed?

Play panels suit schools, nurseries, parks, SEN settings and community playgrounds. They can be wall-mounted, fixed to fencing or installed freestanding, either as standalone features or built into wider playground layouts.

Can play panels be added to an existing playground?

Yes. Panels are among the easiest playground upgrades thanks to their small footprint and flexible mounting options. We provide free design support to help position them effectively within your current layout.

What are some good activity panels for playgrounds?

Popular choices include two-player games like noughts and crosses, musical panels such as the xylophone and chimes, and early years learning panels like Count the Shapes. For inclusive settings, Braille, UK Sign Language and emotions communication panels work well alongside role-play panels.
