Heavy Work Swing
Our Heavy Work Swing is designed to be fully inclusive, offering every child the opportunity to move, play and feel connected. Children who use wheelchairs or mobility aids can position themselves beneath the frame, joining in alongside their friends, while others can enjoy the challenge of pulling, hanging and swinging using their own body weight.
This type of movement - known as heavy work - provides deep physical input, helping to activate multiple muscles and joints at once. The rhythmic motion of pulling and swinging supports self-regulation, helping children manage their energy levels, improve focus, and prepare for learning.
Regular use of the Heavy Work Swing can also support children with sensory processing needs, helping them to feel calm, centred and aware of their body in space, while developing strength, balance and coordination through play.
