Cool Ring
 
The Cool ring is a component of the Play Rings series, meticulously developed and prototyped through extensive research and development. Designed to cater to users of different ages and stages of physical and mental development, the Fun Rings provide a safe yet challenging environment that encourages playful learning. This approach fosters the development of physical, social, communicative, and collaborative skills fundamental for children’s and teenager’s growth and development.
 
“Playful learning” is central to our approach, encompassing both supervised and unsupervised play in dedicated environments. This type of learning is highly effective, fostering low-anxiety environments that encourage active engagement and novel experiences, facilitating peer and adult interactions in an entertaining manner. From a neuroscience perspective, playful learning enhances children’s cognitive skills by leveraging previous experiences and promoting the development of interconnected brain processes. To maximize learning outcomes, playful learning environments must embody characteristics such as joyfulness, meaningfulness, active engagement and social interaction.
 
The Cool Ring, designed for early teens aged 10 to 14, caters to a population sometimes overlooked in traditional playgrounds. Referred to as “the cool guys,” this age group seeks more sophisticated and engaging activities. The Cool Ring offers dedicated areas for practicing strengths with higher difficulty activities such as Ping-Pong tables, climbing arches, twisting slides, basketball hoops, and hanging bars. With a focus on providing a “cool” and visually captivating space for social media, the Cool Ring incorporates equipment promoting social media engagement, such as a Giant Glasses selfie spots and interactive features like board games, creating an appealing gathering spot for socializing and group activities.
