Rope courses Rope courses teach children to cope with moderate heights and improve their physical coordination. While playing, children are exposed to a slight level of danger and discover their physical limits. Similar principles are also offered by net elements. There are barriers to ensure the children's rope climbing frames are safe. Even so, it is advisable to supervise children on the playground. Simple children's rope climbing frames can be built in the garden using wooden poles or between trees. A rope course is a welcome and popular form of entertainment for children.
