Gonge River elements provide unlimited possibilities for building balance paths, and the size and easy joining mechanism make it suitable for small children. Can be combined with Nordic Island 2824. Use River to make a long balance path and you will inspire a young child to spontaneously walk along and balance on it, exactly as if it were a row of curb stones or a log in the woods. River is specially designed for flexible assembly at various angles. To challenge the child’s sense of balance even further, lay the River elements so that the path bends like a snake and the child has to alter the angle of the foot to follow the bends. Play with River primarily improves the child’s balance. River is a tool that stimulates the vestibular sense. Can be stacked for storage. Maximum load 100 kg. Ages 2yrs+.

River pieces measure 35.5 L x 11.5 W x 4.5cm H with a 16 L x 8.5W x 4.5cm end piece.

Key Educational Benefits:

• Balance & Coordination: Engaging with River improves dynamic balance, weight shifting, and coordination through playful movement.
• Vestibular Development: Walking along a winding or angled path strengthens the vestibular system, essential for spatial orientation and movement control.
• Motor Skill Refinement: Encourages foot placement accuracy, step planning, and stability—key aspects of gross motor development.
• Body Awareness & Postural Control: Helps children tune into their body position and maintain upright posture while adjusting to varied angles and curves.
• Creative & Flexible Play: Modular design allows endless combinations, promoting creativity, independent exploration, and collaborative play.
