Water offers one of the best sensory play activities children can experience on a Natural Playground, so providing water is critical for both play and drinking.

Filling and emptying containers improves physical dexterity and eye-hand coordination. Playing with water (or water/sand/dirt) challenges minds as children explore why objects sink or float, how to move water, how to dam it up, how to drink it, wash hands in it, splash it, sprinkle it, make bubbles with it, and float things in it, and how to make sand shapes and mud pies.

Children learn concepts such as empty/full, before/after, shallow/deep, and heavy/light, and will also learn new words, such as funnel, surface, drain, sink, float, dam, splash, sparkle, sprinkle, flow, wet, volume, dry, damp, evaporate, pour, fill, sopping, and strain.

Water is a must, and we provide several options!

These safe, indestructible pumps are tested to withstand millions of strokes, and are PERFECT for hard use on a playground setting. They offer a constant source of fun and entertainment, because every time they’re used, they surprise kids when the water just “appears!”

These inexpensive pumps are a must have on any playground because they provide a play opportunity that is completely self-generated by the children!

This pump can draw water from a below or above ground cistern (which may be in the form of a barrel, 5 gallon bucket, fancy tank, or etc.). You will need a water supply, which might consist of children and a bucket brigade :-), or a hose, or an underground pipe. If you wish to get fancy, you could get a float valve that automatically adjusts the level of water in the reservoir by turning the hose off or on.

If you would like us to put together an entire package which includes the pump, the platform on which the pump rests, the intake pipe that draws water into the pump, the foot valve at the end of the pipe, the cistern which we place under the deck, the float valve, and a connection for a water supply – essentially the complete package – just let us know.

Note: the deck is not included. However, we do have an option that includes the deck and a cistern below it that's outfitted with a float valve. Hook it up to a water source so the cistern is constantly full, and children will never run out of water when they pump.
