Jump for Joy Move & Play – Mushroom
The Jump for Joy Mushroom is a unique and versatile piece of the Move & Play Range, designed to develop children’s balance, poise, and strength while encouraging imaginative movement. Its rounded, stable design provides a safe platform for stepping, climbing, and balancing activities, making it ideal for both structured lessons and creative play. When inverted, the Mushroom introduces shape training, allowing children to explore different body positions and coordination skills. In more formal gymnastics settings, it can function as a Pommel Horse, supporting exercises such as double leg circles to develop core strength and control.
Additionally, its height can be increased by combining it with the Wheel, offering progressive challenges suitable for a range of abilities. Lightweight yet durable, the Mushroom is easy to position, link with other Jump for Joy apparatus, and integrate into obstacle courses, circuits, or individual skill stations. Its adaptability makes it a valuable tool for physical education and gymnastics development.
Ideal for Both Structured Lessons and Creative Play
The Mushroom promotes progressive skill development by offering multiple ways to engage children in physical activities. Its rounded surface encourages balancing, stepping, and climbing exercises, while also improving posture, coordination, and spatial awareness. When inverted, children can explore shape-based exercises, enhancing flexibility and body control. Combined with the Wheel, it can be elevated to provide additional challenges for more advanced learners, supporting strength and poise development.
Teachers can incorporate the Mushroom into circuits, obstacle courses, or paired activities to encourage cooperative play, problem-solving, and creative movement. Its robust construction ensures safety during energetic activities while remaining lightweight enough for easy repositioning. Suitable for children aged 4–7, it helps bridge the gap between basic movement exercises and more structured gymnastics skills. By integrating imaginative and formal uses, the Mushroom encourages confidence, skill progression, and fun in active learning environments.
