Playgrounds for Daycares & Pre-Schools

Daycare and preschool yards need equipment scaled to small bodies: low decks, short slides and ground-level play that staff can supervise easily. This collection has 47 products: 30 commercial playground structures for ages 6–23 months, 2–5 and 2–12, plus 17 freestanding pieces (6 spring riders, 8 play vehicles and 3 playhouses). 19 structures have an available shade canopy option. Our products follow ASTM/CPSC compliance with IPEMA certification; all playgrounds have ADA transfer ramps. Need a playground fast? Quick Ship units ship from the warehouse in 3–5 business days.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a daycare playground typically cost?

The playground structures in this collection run from $1,999 to $38,799. Freestanding pieces like spring riders, play vehicles and playhouses are $899 to $4,599. Freight and installation are extra, and we'll quote the freight to your center. A good rule of thumb for a turn-key playground project is to double the cost of the equipment you want to buy. That gets you close to the total project cost, including installation and safety surfacing.

Can we get shade over the play area?

Many of our daycare playgrounds can be ordered with shade over the play area. 19 of the structures in this collection offer a shade roof option, and many also come with a plastic roof option. You'll find the roof choices on each product page. Our playgrounds with shade collection shows every structure that offers one.

Are daycares required to have playground equipment?

Outdoor play rules come from your state's licensing agency, and they vary from state to state. Your licensing agency is the best place to find out what applies to you. Once you know your requirements, we can help you pick equipment that fits your space and age groups.

What are good outdoor toys for daycare?

Spring riders, play vehicles and playhouses are big hits with little ones, and they're built for commercial use. They also fill gaps around a main structure without taking much room. Many of them are Quick Ship items, which list a ship time of 3–5 business days.
