Beano Swing

"Our new therapy is filled to the brim with Rompa equipment and resources but the most popular Rompa equipment that the children have just loved, have been the Beano Swing, a large inflatable barrel and of course the fantastic Soft Play Super Set. In fact, weve seen some great activities involving all three items at once! One recent task was to use the Beano Swing to knock down a tower made from the Soft Play Super Set, aiding a child seeking ‘crash and bump sensation and then also using the Beano Swing to drop down into the up-turned barrel helping motor planning and body awareness."

“The children love it and have given it many different names, such as the ‘zip wire and ‘thunder bolt! The Beano Swing requires good core stability and tonic flexion as well as strength in the arms and legs to hold on. The swing is a challenge to master and we grade the activities to build up the childs strength. We place a large beanbag underneath until they are able to independently hold on. This swing allows for accelerating linear movements that the child creates himself or the swing is used for rotational movements. The Beano Swing is an essential piece of equipment in our S. I. clinic."
