Pikler Triangle : What height should it be?
From the experts at Studio Belize® - Design Studio for Children's Products:
What height should the Pikler Triangle be?
Pikler triangles are offered with heights between 50 cm & 120 cm. However, the small pikler triangle sets are only suitable for families who have room for two pikler triangles, as these are only suitable for children of a very young age. The very large pikler triangles, on the other hand, are more suitable for sports clubs as gymnastics equipment, as they require a great deal of space and can only be used safely in combination with very thick sports mats as fall protection.
So the golden way lies in the middle. We recommend a height between 70 - 90 cm. Children can play extensively with a Pikler triangle of this height between the ages of 8 months and 7 years. This corresponds to a playing time of about 6-7 years. A Pikler Triangle of this height offers sufficient incentive as a climbing device for babies or toddlers as well as for fantasy games for older children. The climbing triangle with slide is thus characterized by a particularly long playing time and turns every child's room into an indoor adventure playground.
