Therapists, teachers, caregivers, and parents can use Southpaw's Jungle Gym to provide many benefits to children with sensory processing disorders and physical disabilities that affect mobility for rehabilitation purposes in schools, gyms, homes, and private practices.
Because fine motor skills are powered by the core and abdominal muscles, as well as the ability for the shoulders to remain stable, the Jungle Gym provides a useful tool that can help children reach developmental milestones. If these muscles are weak, it can be difficult to manipulate items with the fingers. When using the Jungle Gym, children have to coordinate movement of the arms and legs together and plan ahead of time their next move. Children using the Jungle Gym also have to plan the amount of strength they are going to use in the legs, core, and arms. All of these skills are important and necessary when using fine motor skills to write, button buttons, brush teeth, wash hands, and other skills that require use of fingers to manipulate objects.

Southpaw's Cut Out Climber
This height and angle-adjustable addition to the Jungle Gym provides an easier alternative to the rock climbing wall. With 14 different cutouts in a variety of shapes, the hands and feet always have an easy place to go. This helps the child feel more secure and safe. The height and angle of the climber can be adjusted by changing the Jungle Gym rung that it is attached to. This means that the climber can start at a very small incline on the first rung and as climbing skills become mastered, the Cutout Climber can be moved up to higher rungs for more of a challenge.
