The Donkey Springer gives one child a bouncing ride on a single heavy duty spring. Sturdy handles sit either side of the donkey’s head for a secure grip. Bright HPL panels form a shape children recognise straight away. It comes in a variety of colourways to match any playground scheme.
About the Donkey Springer
Two shaped HPL panels form the donkey’s body and head, fixed either side of a galvanised spring. A moulded seat with a front handle sits between the panels. The whole unit turns on one spring, rocking side to side as a child leans into the motion. At 1.58m tall, it has a compact 0.91m by 0.47m footprint. This fits neatly into a tight corner of a play area.

Who is it for?
Designed for children aged 2 and over, the Donkey Springer suits nurseries, primary schools and family play areas. One child rides at a time, working well alone or alongside other equipment. Because the rocking motion is gentle and controlled, younger children enjoy it just as confidently as older ones.
Great play value
Rocking back and forth builds balance, coordination and core strength with every ride. The donkey shape invites imaginative play too. As a result, children return to this springer again and again.
Easy to look after
The HPL panels wipe clean and resist scratches, fading and vandalism, so upkeep stays minimal. With just one moving part, the spring, there is little to check beyond a routine safety inspection.
Built to last
A galvanised steel spring gives a corrosion resistant base built to handle years of daily bouncing. The HPL panels stand up to sun, rain and knocks without losing their colour or shape. Fixed into the ground, the springer stays stable and secure through every ride.
