The Dolphin Play Panel brings a calming seaside scene to the playground. It features palm trees, gulls and rolling waves around a porthole window where a dolphin peeks through. Caloo moulds the panel from tough two colour HDPE for lasting outdoor use. As a result, it combines gentle visual storytelling with a satisfying rotating feature that draws children in.
Key features of the Dolphin Play Panel
At the centre of the scene sits a 360 degree rotating porthole insert filled with small coloured balls. The balls swish and shift as children turn it, creating a gentle visual and audible effect with every spin. This simple rotating action supports fine motor development and cause and effect learning. In addition, the wider beach scene gives children plenty to talk about and point to. Caloo positions the porthole at an accessible height, so children using wheelchairs or standing frames can join in easily. Caloo also mounts the panel on sturdy posts for everyday outdoor use. This makes the Dolphin Play Panel a popular choice for accessible play areas.
Because it combines a calm visual scene with one simple, repeatable action, the Dolphin Play Panel is a gentle, inclusive activity. It suits SEN and mainstream playgrounds alike, giving children of different abilities a shared focal point to enjoy together.
Built to last
Caloo manufactures every play panel from durable, weather resistant HDPE. It also tests each one to the RoSPA backed BS EN 1176 playground safety standard. So schools and councils can rely on it for years of outdoor use. In addition, the Dolphin Play Panel is part of our wider Play Panels range, built to the same high standard across every design.
Pair the Dolphin Play Panel with the Concave Mirror Play Panel or Colour Wheel Kaleidoscope Play Panel to build a themed sensory trail. As a result, children get several different ways to explore movement, colour and sound in one play area.
