The Concave Mirror Play Panel brings a curved twist to outdoor reflection play. A shatterproof mirrored surface sits inside a tough, two colour HDPE panel. As children move, their reflection stretches, bends and distorts. A simple look in the mirror becomes an open ended sensory activity.
Key features of the Concave Mirror Play Panel
The curved mirror creates playful, ever changing reflections. Children can experiment with movement, facial expression and distance, and see the results instantly. This visual feedback supports early self recognition, cause and effect learning and body awareness, all through simple, repeatable play. The mirror sits at an accessible height, so children using wheelchairs or standing frames can join in alongside their friends. In addition, Caloo mounts the panel on sturdy posts built for long term outdoor use.
The Concave Mirror Play Panel asks for no complicated rules and no physical exertion. Because of this, it works particularly well on SEN and inclusive school grounds. It gives children a calm, self directed activity that rewards gentle exploration. As a result, it is a popular choice for sensory trails, quiet corners and early years play areas. Every child needs a way in, and this panel gives them one.
Built to last
Caloo manufactures every play panel from durable, weather resistant HDPE. Each one is tested to the RoSPA backed BS EN 1176 playground safety standard. As a result, schools and councils can be confident it will stand up to daily use in all weathers. The Concave Mirror Play Panel is part of our wider Play Panels range. Every design in the range is built to the same high standard.
For a fuller sensory experience, pair the Concave Mirror Play Panel with the Convex Mirror Play Panel or the Colour Wheel Kaleidoscope Play Panel. Together, they build a themed reflection and colour trail. This gives children multiple ways to explore light, colour and their own reflection in one play area.
