SIK-Holz® › Quiet area<br />
The quiet area is reserved for quieter, imaginative games.<br />
This can be <strong>en</strong>couraged by suitable shrub and tree planting,<br />
as already m<strong>en</strong>tioned on page 7. Such modifications<br />
are also important to separate the area from the more<br />
active play areas.<br />
Small childr<strong>en</strong> particularly need these boundaries<br />
to be able to ori<strong>en</strong>tate themselves and not feel lost in the<br />
vast outdoor area. Peace and a feeling of security are also<br />
conveyed from the <strong>en</strong>closed or partially <strong>en</strong>closed design of<br />
this area. As well as younger childr<strong>en</strong>, childr<strong>en</strong> with disabilities<br />
or slower developm<strong>en</strong>t also need a quiet area where<br />
they can <strong>en</strong>joy activities according to their abilities.<br />
Combinations of the equipm<strong>en</strong>t pictured below<br />
can create interesting play situations. S<strong>en</strong>sory games can<br />
be integrated into a play house, or an activity wall with<br />
window holes can become the facade. Play sculptures or<br />
wheeled equipm<strong>en</strong>t can also contribute to stimulating<br />
creative role play. They draw childr<strong>en</strong> into a joint play<br />
situation that stimulates «learning from one another».<br />
