Product Spotlight: Playmotion™ Technology

Product Spotlight: Playmotion™ Technology

                There is such a huge desire for educational play these days in schools and childcare facilities. As was discussed last week, this can prove to facilitate boring and inactive play for your children. However, here at Xccent, we KNOW that not all things can be taught in a classroom or learned from a book. Your child needs so much more to develop into a well rounded adult. To name only a few:
·         Social skills
·         Large muscle coordination
·         Sense of humor
All these elements and more benefit from and develop in playtime. Our exclusive Playmotion™ technology encourages kids to play to the ABSOLUTE BEST of their ability.


Check out www.xccentplay.com for a full catalog of all of our products and the full range of benefits that come from Playmotion™ technology.

Xccent Focuses on Safety without Limiting Activity or Excitement for Children


Xccent Focuses on Safety without Limiting Activity or Excitement for Children

                A recent study by Kristen Copeland, MD, of Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center and her colleagues shows that the rise in childhood obesity may have to do with simple boredom from the young children in regards to their outdoor play and playgrounds.
Here at Xccent, so much time and resources are spent on making sure that our systems and play events are not only completely safe, but also have optimum play value for those children using them.

·         exclusive polymer joints and hinges that are found on the X-wave, Gyro and other Xccent favorites replace ancient rusty coil springs and eliminate pinch points
·          unique 360-degree movement design creates a unique and different play experience every time a child uses a piece of equipment, keeping kids engaged and interested.





















·          Easy for parents and staff to curtail reckless behavior before it has hurtful results.
·          Offers children the ability for more interaction with other children
























·          One deck design in the Fusion Series stimulates active play by not allowing children too many places to sit down
·          ALL elements provide play opportunities from the deck to the arches





















Don’t let your children to get bored and complacent in their outdoor play, speak with one of our sales representatives TODAY!
