At Experia, we recommend outdoor sensory equipment for schools as an effective way to encourage sensory exploration through the key developmental years. 


Benefits of Sensory Playground Equipment

Every child can benefit from time spent outside and sensory stimulation, which is why we believe that outdoor sensory equipment for schools should be a staple across the country. Allowing students to engage with each other and their environment while enjoying sensory play can help with fundamental growth including social interaction, physical skills and hand-eye coordination.


Types of Outdoor Sensory Equipment for Schools

Every school is different and will have different requirements for sensory playground equipment depending on budget, space available and the students’ needs and abilities. Some of our favourite pieces of equipment for schools include:

Climbing frames 

Perfect for building up a child’s vestibular sense and balance, climbing frames let them use their bodies in different ways, whether that’s climbing, sliding or jumping. Our Monkey Climber range is ideal for this as it can be adapted with different equipment like climbing nets or a slide to suit the students’ needs.

Sensory wall panels

While not all wall panels are suited to the outdoors, there are plenty that are built to be hardy. These may be tactile, auditory or visual, but they will engage a student’s senses and, for schools with limited space, wall panels take up almost no space!

Gardens

Sensory gardens are a great addition to a playground – students might grow food or flowers and can be encouraged to look after their plants themselves. They have many benefits, including providing a quiet area away from the business of the playground for children to sit and avoid overstimulation.

Stepping stones

A set of portable ‘stepping stones’, often mats made of silicone, can be great for solo or group activities with students. Encourage students to follow a path or jump between certain colours to create a fun game.


Outdoor sensory equipment for schools is a fantastic investment for mainstream schools and special schools alike. If you’re interested in purchasing sensory playground equipment for your school, please get in touch with our expert team today to discuss your needs.
