What better way to take a break from seeing the animals than to play with them?! This animal-themed PlayBooster® playstructure for kids ages 5 to 12 incorporates a lot of DigiFuse® panels to create seek-and-find activities on the playground, create playful animal characters throughout the play space and help teach kids about the animal friends they saw throughout the zoo. It's also loaded with climbers, slides, bridges and net climbers. A PlayShaper® playstructure was also included for kids ages 2 to 5 complete with a bear-themed climber, log steppers and more DigiFuse graphic panels. Even more, an elephant and giraffe were sculpted from glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC) to create realistic animals that are sure to stop passersby in their tracks.
